Set MCA billing account ID as scope

Open ptsouk opened this issue 1 year ago â€ĸ 2 comments

âš ī¸ Problem

MCA Billing account ID has unsupported characters for the "Directory" field when setting the scope of the FOCUS export.

đŸ› ī¸ Solution

Update documentation with the correct setting of the "Directory" field in the case of MCA and billing account scope.

â„šī¸ Additional context

When setting the FOCUS export rule, the "Directory" field requires the resource ID of the scope. In the case of MCA and a scope at the billing account, the MCA billing account ID has the format:

guid:guid_yyyy-mm-dd

where the characters ":" and "_" are unsupported.

Let me follow up with the Cost Management team. Allowed characters shouldn't be blocked.

@flanakin Meanwhile, should we update the docs to say that we should only use the first part of the string? (everything before ":" )
