Need Clarification on a Service Endpoint limit

I found the following point in service endpoint limitations:

  • A virtual network can be associated with up to 200 different subscriptions and regions by each supported service with active VNet rules configured.

Can you please explain what does it exactly mean? Taking Storage service as an example, does it mean that

  1. we can only associate 200 storage accounts with a VNet? or
  2. we can associate any number of storage accounts with a VNet as long as they are in unique 200 subscription and region pair?

    Hi @Kartik Mundra

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

    we can associate any number of storage accounts with a VNet as long as they are in unique 200 subscription and region pair?

    Yes, this is correct. VNet can be linked to storage accounts across up to 200 unique combinations of different Azure subscriptions and regions. The limitation is on the number of unique subscription and region combinations you can configure, not on the number of storage accounts (Example).


    If above is unclear and/or you are unsure about something add a comment below.

    Hello Kartik Mundra,

    Thanks for your question.Yes. You can associate a VNet with multiple storage accounts, provided that the number of unique subscription and region combinations does not exceed 200 for the Azure Storage service. For example:

    If you have 150 unique subscriptions and each subscription has storage accounts in 2 different regions. This exceeds the Azure service endpoint limit of 200 for a single VNet.

    See detailed explanation:
