Upgrade Azure SaaS instance from free to usage-based

Hi,

I have created a SaaS-based Influx DB instance through Azure. When creating the instance, I was offered the free or usage-based tiers, and I selected ‘free’. I now want to upgrade to usage-based, but when I try to do so through Influx, it requests a credit card, which doesn’t make sense to me as billing is through Azure. How can I upgrade my account to usage-based?

Many thanks,
Gary

Hello @garypendlebury,

From a colleague:

To bill through Azure, they have to sign up for cloud through the Azure marketplace.
Which I’m not even sure is available anymore…
It’s still listed: Microsoft Azure Marketplace
I don’t know if there’s a way to convert a free account to a PAYG marketplace account.

I’d suggest contacting support above please.
