How to archive ( hide ) a resource group of a decommissioned application ?

Hello @ADM Anaya, Ines Thank you for contacting us through Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer any questions you may have!

Based on the information you provided, I understand that you want to decommission an application and archive/hide a resource group.

I am sorry to say, there is no built-in way to archive or hide a resource group in Azure without completely deleting it. However, there are some workarounds that you can use to achieve a similar result:

1. Move the resource group to a different subscription: You can move the resource group to a different subscription that is designated for archived resources. This will allow you to keep the resources and data associated with the application without incurring any additional costs.
2. Rename the resource group: You can rename the resource group to indicate that it is no longer in use. This will make it easier to identify and ignore the resource group in the future.
3. Use tags to mark the resource group: You can use tags to mark the resource group as archived or no longer in use. This will make it easier to identify and ignore the resource group in the future.
4. Lock the resource group: You can use Azure Resource Manager locks to prevent any changes to the resource group. This will ensure that the resources and data associated with the application are not accidentally deleted or modified.

While these workarounds are not perfect, they can help you achieve a similar result to archiving or hiding a resource group in Azure.

Hope this helps. Please write back to us if you have any further questions.
