I have an azure donotdelete lock scoped at subscription level i want to exclude few resourcegroups from it in azure . I do not find any direct way for it other than applying lock at resource group level. Is there any better way to implement the same.

    Hi @Abhishek Singh ,

    it's not possible to block the inheritance of locks in Azure.
    You need to remove the lock at subscription level and add the lock on resource group level.

    There is a feedback at Azure Feedback. You can vote for this feature request if you like:
