About Azure subscriptions and GitHub Enterprise Cloud
If you purchased GitHub Enterprise through a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement, you can connect your Azure Subscription ID to your enterprise account to enable and pay for any GitHub Codespaces usage, and for GitHub Actions or GitHub Packages usage beyond the amounts included with your account. For more information, see "About billing for GitHub Actions and "About billing for GitHub Packages."
Note: If your enterprise account is on a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement, connecting an Azure subscription is the only way to use GitHub Actions and GitHub Packages beyond the included amounts, or to use GitHub Codespaces at all.
After you connect an Azure subscription, you can also manage your spending limits.

- "Managing your spending limit for GitHub Actions"
- "Managing your spending limit for GitHub Codespaces"
