Which Azure Level 2 Services are associated via PAL?

Updated FY27 list of Azure level 2 services attributed through PAL, plus how the association drives ACR, designations and incentives.

Updated for FY27. Partner Admin Link (PAL) attributes Azure Consumed Revenue (ACR) to your Partner One ID when you hold admin access in a customer environment. Not every Azure meter counts, so the list below is the practical reference for what's in scope. New for FY27, AI workloads such as Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI and Microsoft Fabric consumption also carry through.

If you're new to this, start with What is PAL (Microsoft Azure Partner Admin Link)?, then check Microsoft's guidance on linking a partner ID.
