Question/Query

I want to create an internal application to automate some tasks regarding our storage accounts. I saw that the JSON output contains an ID property. But this ID is calculated. Is this ID mutable? What happens if I change the resource group of a storage account? How should I update the storage account IDs in my database?

  "id": "/subscriptions/some-uuid/resourceGroups/some-name/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/some-name",

Environment

No response

@Nefcanto

After you create the storage account, normally the storage account resource ID won't change.

However, there are scenario to move storage account to another subscription and resource group (see doc), In this case, it will change.
