I'd like to set up an Event Grid Subscription for a topic with a Service Bus queue as the handler. The Service Bus queue lives in a separate subscription from the Event Grid topic; user accounts do not have standing access to both subscriptions. Therefore, I'm wondering if there is a way to configure the handler with the Service Bus connection string. Is this currently possible? Are there any work-arounds?
Today, the only way to directly do this is the user creating the Event Subscription must have permissions to write to the Service Bus queue, so you would have to grant at least that level of access.
Once Managed Service Identities lands in Event Grid for publishing, you'll be able to assign write access to the MSI and then direct Event Grid to use that MSI with the Event Subscription for publish.
As Roman said, for such resources belonging to different subscriptions, you can use the Event Grid Trigger in Azure Function. You can configure the endpoint of the Event Grid topic subscription to an Azure Function, and then use this Azure Function to pass information to the Service Bus queue in another subscription.

I want to send an event that is sent to Azure Service Bus topic to an event hub. Is this possible?
Details:
I am working with a different team in my company that receives third party events (via webhook) to Azure Service Bus topic and this is further used in different application.
My team wants to now listen/subscribe to this topic using our existing event hub and using azure capture store these events to a storage account.
I did the following:
I created a subscription to their topic in their Azure Service Bus.
I created an event hub in my Event hub namespace.
I am not sure, how to now connect the azure service bus topic subscription to send those events to my event hub.
Thanks for your time.
Service bus operates with the receivers having to pull messages from it. This is opposite to Eventgrid which pushes the events to its subscribers. Eventhub does not pull messages from the source, we need to push messages into it. So you cannot achieve your requirement without an extra component between Service Bus and Eventhub.
One of the possible components would be a service bus topic triggered azure function LINK which writes into the eventhub using output binding LINK or the SDK LINK.
You will need to choose your service plan carefully depending on the volume of messages expected but usually Consumption plan will suit this purpose.
I am trying to dynamically create an Azure Function (Service Bus trigger) that will respond to messages from a Service Bus queue or topic.
There is a CLI way of creating an Azure Function that acts as an HTTP Trigger. However I havent found a way to create a Service Bus Trigger. Is this even doable ?
** Edit, I am able to programmatically create an Azure Service Bus Queue using this sample code
So really I am hoping to create a function based on the details of the servicebus queue generated at an earlier step and have the function fire from that queue.
In Azure, I'm trying to send event notifications from a Storage Account in one Active Directory to an Event Hub in another Active Directory.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to share/link the resource.
In AWS, I was able to accomplish this by creating a role in the receiver account, adding the source account by ID, adding the SQS Writer resource permission, and adding the SQS Queue ARN as the bucket notification destination. I'm guessing something similar is possible in Azure..
At the moment, I am looking at Active Directory IAM, which appears to have the EventGrid EventSubscription Contributor property. In the destination account I have added the source account as a contributor, and I received a notification in the source account that I had permissions in the destination account, but when I try to create an event subscription in the source account, the Event Hubs in the destination account don't show as an option.
How can I write event notifications to Event Hubs in one account from a Storage Account in another?
Absolutely yes. I think there are many ways to do that across different subscriptions, such as the two below.
Solution 1 to use Azure Functions. You can use Azure Function with Blob Trigger to get the event notifications of blob changes, and then to request the other Azure Function with HttpTrigger via PUT/POST method to transfer the event message of blob information like blob url with SAS token for accessing in other subscriptions.
Solution 2 to use Azure Logic Apps. You can use the logic flow below to get the blob change events to send the notification message to EventHub in other subscriptions, because Azure Logic Apps allows to configure their connection information manually as below.

Basically, there are supported two ways in the Azure Event Grid Pub/Sub model for delivery events across the multi-tenants environment, such as:
Tightly coupled delivery of the event messages to the subscriber resource based on the RBAC. At the subscriber (destination) resource, you can
add a built-in role assignment such as EventGrid EventSubscription Contributor for Azure AD user, etc.
or add co-administrator at the Azure subscription level
The following screen snippet shows an example of the case when I am a co-administrator two Azure subscriptions such as the Stage and Development.
Creating an Event Subscription for event driven blob storage topic in the AEG provider at the Stage azure account and delivery its notification events across the azure account boundary to the Subscriber such as an Event Hub located in the Development azure account is straightforward:
Loosely decoupled delivery of the event messages to the Subscribers across the multi-tenants boundary based on the WebHook event handler endpoint. For Pub/Sub integration across the tenant boundary can be used an EventGridTrigger function with an output binding to the Event Hub resource. The following screen snippet shows this example:
The above solution is very straightforward with capability to mediate (pre-processing) an event message to the Event Hub resource.
In the case for distributing the events to another subscribers, etc. in the Fan-Out pattern manner, the Azure Event Grids can be cascaded like is shown in the following screen snippet:
In the above solution, each tenant has own Azure Event Grid provider and there are cascaded via the "plumbing" WebHook event handler endpoint and custom topic endpoint.
More details about the AEG cascading implementation can be found here.
I would like to run some automation to take some actions whenever a new resource is created in One of my subscriptions in Azure. Is this possible?
You can use Azure Event grid for this, a solution that is built for exactly this purpose. Taken from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/event-grid/overview
Azure Event Grid allows you to easily build applications with event-based architectures. You select the Azure resource you would like to subscribe to, and give the event handler or WebHook endpoint to send the event to. Event Grid has built-in support for events coming from Azure services, like storage blobs and resource groups.
You basically create a subscription to a certain event (such as specific resources being created) that can then be picked up by a webhook, or processed by Azure Automation or Azure Functions
I have a requirement when webapp is started or stoped my azure function should be called. I have gone through Azure Grid Events, using Subscription as Resource Group but it does not capture any event on WebApp. So Azure Function is not called.
Is it possible to achieve this using Event Grid? I dont want to create use Custom Events.

In short answer, it is not possbile to do that currenctly. We could get more information about Event grid from this tutorial.
Currently, the following Azure services support sending events to Event Grid:
Azure Subscriptions (management operations)
Custom Topics
Event Hubs
IoT Hub
Resource Groups (management operations)
Service Bus
Storage Blob
Storage General-purpose v2 (GPv2)
Note: It supports part of the region currently.
