I created a private endpoint to restrict access to our web application, also a private dns zone was created (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/networking/private-endpoint) and mywebapp.privatelink A record is added to to privatelink.azurewebsites.net dns zone, but I still got 403 forbidden error. Did I miss something? anyone could help check for me? Thx!!!

    Hi @Kevin ,

    Sounds like you're missing the CNAME that points myapp.azurewebsites.net to myapp.privatelink.azurewebsites.net. Check your DNS records to see if that CNAME is missing. To verify, use nslookup myapp.azurewebsites.net from an Azure VM that's associated with the same VNET your app service is on.
