Learn how to configure Azure Private Link for a secure connection to the Reltio Platform.

1. Submit a request to enable Azure Private Link for your Reltio environment.
   We provision a Private Link Service (PLS) and share the service alias with you through the support ticket.
2. In the Azure portal, create a private endpoint using the alias provided.
   1. Search for "private endpoint" and select Private endpoints
   2. Click + Create
      
   3. In Basics enter your project and instance details
   4. In Resource enter the Reltio virtual private service alias, from step 1
      In the Request message enter the Zendesk ticket id from step 1.
   5. Enter your VNet details, review and create the virtual endpoint
      For details on each parameter, see Azure private endpoint properties.
3. In Azure Private endpoints, confirm that the endpoint creation request was approved.
   We approve the request as part of the original support ticket.
4. In Azure Private DNS Zones, create a zone for reltio.com.
   Link the DNS zone to the same VNet where the private endpoint is deployed. This ensures DNS resolution from within your private network.
   1. In the DNS zone, under DNS Management > Recordsets, add a record set.

      Point this record to the private endpoint IP address shown in your Azure resource. This step allows internal name resolution.

      For the environment eu03-prod.reltio.com, the A record should resemble the following:

      
      Name: eu03-prod
      Type: A
      TTL: 300
      IP address: 10.0.0.18
               

5. From a VM in the same subnet as your private endpoint, use nslookup or curl to validate connectivity to the Reltio URL.
   Check that the resolved IP matches the private endpoint and that the Reltio URL responds over HTTPS.

   The validation VM must live in the exact subnet that hosts the private endpoint. Using another subnet, even inside the same VNet, can route traffic differently and mask configuration issues.

   From this VM, run the following command:

   
   nslookup eu03-prod.reltio.com
             

   The output should return the private endpoint IP address, like:

   
   Name:    eu03-prod.reltio.com
   Address: 10.0.0.18
