How can I change the tier of an IoT Central instance?

I tried to change the tier / SKU of my IoT Central instance. However I can't find the option to do so either in the Azure Portal or in IoT Central.

Is it possible to change the SKU of the instance or do I have to create a new instance?

Solution

  • You can change the pricing plan for an Azure IoT Central application via Settings - Application - Pricing. See also the FAQ. There is no UI to change the SKU in the Azure Portal. IoT Central Change Pricing

    It can also be changed through Azure CLI or ARM templates / bicep. The current valid values are ST0, ST1, ST2 for Standard 0, 1 and 2 respectively.
