AZ-104 - Manage Azure Identities and Governance - Section 1.3

Manage Azure subscriptions and governance using tags, policies, resource locks, and Cost Management.

Configure Azure Policy definitions and assignments to enforce compliance, apply resource tags to organise and allocate costs, and use management groups to apply governance consistently across multiple subscriptions. Distinguish between ReadOnly and CanNotDelete resource locks, and use Azure Cost Management to analyse spending and set budgets.

An architect wants to apply a consistent tag set across a management group, a subscription, a resource group, and individual resources for cost reporting. At which scope can tags NOT be applied directly?

  • ASubscriptions
  • BResource groups

Why A is wrong: Tags can be applied to subscriptions.

Why B is wrong: Tags can be applied to resource groups.

Why C is wrong: Tags can be applied to individual resources.
