How can I find out who created a particular resource within an Azure Resource Group?

When looking at the Overview tab of a given Azure Resource Group I'm hoping to find out the original creator of each resource. It doesn't seem there is a field for this when Editing the colums under Manage View.

Is there perhaps another way to see this information?

    Hi @Justin Wright

    232201-image.png

    1) You can check in Activity log - Go to resource and click Activity log in left pane , it will show actions perform on resource group if this resource was created recently upto 90 Days .

    2) You can check in Deployments section in left pane where it will give detail about the deployment implemented in that RG.

    Just to prevent this in future you can take below steps

    1) Enforced Tag by Policy - https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/tag-policies?WT.mc_id=IoT-MVP-5002324

    2) Create Deny assignment rule over RG -https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/role-based-access-control/deny-assignments-portal
