How to change region for Azure WebSite

Tags:

web

azure

On the first time I have selected US East region by mistake. But I need EU Region. I try to delete that web site and create a new one. But from now I can select only US East (it's the only item in the Regions list).

How can I change region for new WebSite?

How do I change my Azure region?

In the Azure portal, open the relevant resource group. In the resource group page, select the resources that you want to move. Select Move > Move to another region. In Source + destination, select the target region to which you want to move the resources.

How do I change my Azure Web app location?

You cannot change the location of an app service plan, regardless of subscription type. You simply need to create a new app service plan in the region you want, and then redeploy your code.

How do I move my Azure app to another region?

App Service resources are region-specific and can't be moved across regions. You must create a copy of your existing App Service resources in the target region, then move your content over to the new app.

How do I edit my Azure website?

Another way to access this editor is through the Azure portal. In your web app, under Development Tools section, you may find the App Service Editor (Preview) option. Once you click on it, a new page appears with some details about this feature and a Go link that launches the previous url.

While Azure WebSites are in preview mode, the creation of new WebSites are routed to locations where capacity has been made available. As Microsoft is able to look at usage data and demand, you should see the other data centers open up.

As I mentioned in the comment above, I had this problem too but was not convinced by the accepted answer.

I manually changed the value of the drop down value that the form provides to the region that I wanted:

In the drop down for region, I only had a choice of East US. I used firebug (or browser equivalent) to edit the value of the select option to 'West US' and submitted the form. The website was deployed to my desired region.

Note: Azure sites are currently in preview so may not be supported in all regions
