If I transfer the ownership of a Subscription, what happens to the ADB2C tenancy within that subscription?
We are creating a solution for a client with a B2C tenancy inside it, and would like to run the subscription in "Production" within our main tenancy, before transferring everything over to the client at once.
Will any permissions be changed in the transfer?
Will the users inside the B2C tenancy be there after the transfer?
Thanks

Hi @AlexKnight-0679 · Thank you for reaching out.
If the source and destination subscriptions are associated with different Azure Active Directory tenants, you can't perform the move via Azure Resource Manager. However, you can still achieve the same result by unlinking the Azure AD B2C tenant from the source subscription and relinking it to the destination subscription. This method is safe because the only object you delete is the billing link, not the Azure AD B2C tenant itself. None of the users, apps, user flows, etc. will be affected.
In the Azure AD B2C directory itself, invite a guest user from the destination Azure AD tenant (the one that the destination Azure subscription is linked to) and ensure this user has the Global administrator role in Azure AD B2C.
Navigate to the Azure resource representing Azure AD B2C in your source Azure subscription as explained in the Manage your Azure AD B2C tenant resources section above. Don't switch to the actual Azure AD B2C tenant.
Select the Delete button on the Overview page. This does not delete the related Azure AD B2C tenant's users or applications. It merely removes the billing link from the source subscription.
Sign in to the Azure portal with the user account that was added as an administrator in Azure AD B2C in step 1. Then navigate to the destination Azure subscription, which is linked to the destination Azure Active Directory tenant.
Re-establish the billing link in the destination subscription by following the Create the link procedure above.
Your Azure AD B2C resource has now moved to the destination Azure subscription (linked to the target Azure Active Directory) and will be billed through this subscription from now on.
