Private Link between Azure Front Door and Azure Container Apps

Question

Hi,

There is some ambiguity in the documentation regarding private link support between Azure Front Door and Azure Container Apps at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/frontdoor/private-link.

One part of documentation says that private endpoints are supported: "Internal load balancers, or any services that expose internal load balancers such as Azure Kubernetes Service, Azure Container Apps or Azure Red Hat OpenShift"

Another part says that it is in preview: Azure Container Apps (Preview only in Powershell and CLI. Don't use in production environments)

1. Please clarify, if this is in preview or in GA.
2. If this is in preview, then the only option would be to keep the public interface open for Container Apps. What would be the best way to secure and limit access to this public interface of Container Apps.

Thanks

Hi @RajivBansal-2486,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

Yes, this is in preview.

If this is in preview, then the only option would be to keep the public interface open for Container Apps. What would be the best way to secure and limit access to this public interface of Container Apps.

By configuring the IP restrictions, we can allow certain IPs and deny others.
