Approve Private Link connections across subscriptions

Azure Private Link enables you to connect privately to Azure resources. Private Link connections are scoped to a specific subscription. This article shows you how to approve a private endpoint connection across subscriptions.

Prerequisites

  • Two active Azure subscriptions:

    • One subscription hosts the Azure resource and the other subscription contains the consumer private endpoint and virtual network.
  • An administrator account for each subscription or an account with permissions in each subscription to create and manage resources.
