I have more than a hundred different applications reporting to the same Application Insights instance.

The applications are running in many different places (our cloud, customer’s cloud, our servers, customer’s servers).

All applications use the same instrumentation key.

I now need to move to another (or new) Azure subscription. Is it possible to redirect the traffic to a new Application Insights instance without changing the instrumentation key?

Can’t move the current instance because the subscriptions are not in the same directory.

Don’t need historical data.
Just want to avoid the tedious task of getting access to each application’s settings to change the instrumentation key.

  1. As @Harshitha suggested you can create a new subscription in current directory, then move Application Insights resource to that subscription and finally move the subscription to target directory.

    Alternatively you can open a support ticket and see whether something like this can be done internally (though most likely the first approach will be recommended first anyway).
