Can you install a hybrid worker on an Azure VM in a different subscription?

Say you have subscription A with an automation account and other resources. And subscription B that has VM's only. Is it possible to install a hybrid runbook worker on an Azure VM in subscription B so we can run these runbooks on it using the machine context and the managed identity of the automation account of subscription A?

 

Since you also need a Log Analytics workspace to use a Hybrid Runbook Worker where does this Log Analytics workspace need to be created?

    Yes you can , Installing a hybrid worker on an Azure VM that belongs to a different subscription can be useful in scenarios where you want to manage resources across subscriptions or tenants using Azure Automation.
