Question

Difficulty: HardAzure Subscription Management and Cost Control

An administrator creates an Azure budget named Mgmt-Prod-Budget scoped to a management group named Prod-MG to monitor spending across multiple subscriptions. The administrator can configure Mgmt-Prod-Budget to trigger an Azure Action Group that executes a Logic App when the actual monthly cost reaches 100% of the budget.

Answer: Answer

Answer

False
Azure Cost Management budgets configured at the Management Group scope only support email notifications. They do not support Action Groups, which prevents the administrator from triggering a Logic App directly from the budget alert at this scope.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Determine the scope of the budget configuration.
The budget Mgmt-Prod-Budget is scoped to the management group Prod-MG.
Budget capabilities vary depending on the scope at which they are defined (Management Group, Subscription, Resource Group, or Resource).
2
Evaluate the alert and action capabilities supported at the Management Group scope.
Management Group-scoped budgets support only email notification alerts to specified recipients.
Unlike Subscription and Resource Group scopes, Management Group scopes do not support Action Groups, meaning automated actions like triggering Logic Apps or Runbooks are unavailable.
3
Compare the requirements of the administrator's plan with the supported capabilities.
The attempt to configure an Action Group for the management group budget will fail.
Since the administrator is attempting to associate an Action Group with a Management Group-scoped budget, the statement is false.
