Make Rest API call to a endpoint which is inside a private network from Azure function

Question

Hi,

I am trying to access a Rest API Endpoint which is inside my companies private network, but I am having issues.

The connection works when my Function app is running locally, but when I deploy my Function app to Azure the API call fails.

Below is a diagram of what I am trying to achieve.

Hi,

Are you using Virtual Network integration so that your function can connect to a VNet that is connected to your company's private network via Site-to-Site VPN connection? Or are you using some other method to allow your function to make a REST call into the private network?

Please provide more details and/or set up VNet integration and reply back with your results.
