Linking the cloud to another billing account
Scenario description
You need to change the billing account associated with one or more clouds.
Solution
The relevant sequence of actions depends on the type of billing account you want to link to the cloud:
To move a cloud from the current account to a new account of a legal entity, you need:
- Create a new billing account on behalf of the legal entity owning the current or another Yandex account.
- Send documents and wait for activation to avoid forced downtime of resources
- After the activation, link your clouds to the new account.
Be sure to pay off outstanding amounts on the original account, if any.
Once the clouds are moved, you can grant other accounts access to this cloud.
To do this, follow these steps:
You can find the list of roles here.
You can create a new Yandex ID account or a new billing account within the existing Yandex ID account and link the cloud to it.
Be sure to pay off outstanding amounts on the original account, if any.
Alert
In the cloud you want to transfer, assign the resource-manager.clouds.owner cloud owner role to the user who has the billing.accounts.owner or editor role for the billing account of the organization you transfer the cloud to. A cloud must have at least one owner. After assigning a second owner, you can revoke this role from yourself.
