Azure Subscription metadata
Did you ever come accross unkown subscriptions in your tenant? Some employee who started a free trial with their company creds or perhaps a student who upgraded his/her Azure for Students subscription? The billing info is retrievable in the Azure portal by browsing to the subscription and going to either the Billing Properties blade (Azure Plan), or the Properties (legacy) blade. The billing account name is usually the name of the person who created the subscription.
There is no official api supported by Microsoft to retrieve this metadata. If you do need to use code, feel free to see if this might help you out. Please note this is very much not supported.
