Callout policy

Your cluster can communicate with external services in many different scenarios. Cluster administrators can manage the authorized domains for external calls by updating the cluster's callout policy.

Supported properties of a callout

A callout policy is composed of the following properties:

Name Type Description
CalloutType string Defines the type of callout, and can be one of types listed in callout types.
CalloutUriRegex string Specifies the regular expression whose matches represent the domain of resources of the callout domain.
CanCall bool Whether the callout is permitted or denied external calls.

Types of callout

Callout policies are managed at cluster-level and are classified into the following types:

Callout policy type Description
kusto Controls cross-cluster queries.
sql Controls the SQL plugin.
mysql Controls the MySQL plugin.
azure_digital_twins Controls the Azure Digital Twins plugin.
cosmosdb Controls the Cosmos DB plugin.
sandbox_artifacts Controls sandboxed plugins (python and R).
external_data Controls access to external data through external tables or externaldata operator.
webapi Controls access to http endpoints.

Predefined callout policies

The following table shows a set of predefined callout policies that are preconfigured on your cluster to enable callouts to selected services:

Service Designation Permitted domains
Kusto Cross cluster queries [a-z0-9]{3,22}\\.(\\w+\\.)?kusto(mfa)?\\.windows\\.net/?$
Kusto Cross cluster queries ^https://[a-z0-9]{3,22}\\.[a-z0-9-]{1,50}\\.(kusto\\.azuresynapse|kustodev\\.azuresynapse-dogfood)\\.net/?$
Kusto Cross cluster queries ^https://([A-Za-z0-9]+\\.)?(ade|adx)\\.(int\\.|aimon\\.)?(applicationinsights|loganalytics|monitor)\\.(io|azure\\.com)/
Azure DB SQL requests [a-z0-9][a-z0-9\\-]{0,61}[a-z0-9]?\\.database\\.windows\\.net/?$
Synapse Analytics SQL requests [a-z0-9-]{0,61}?(-ondemand)?\\.sql\\.azuresynapse(-dogfood)?\\.net/?$
External Data External data .*
Azure Digital Twins Azure Digital Twins [A-Za-z0-9\\-]{3,63}\\.api\\.[A-Za-z0-9]+\\.digitaltwins\\.azure\\.net/?$

More predefined policies on your cluster may be observed with next query:

.show cluster policy callout 
| where EntityType == 'Cluster immutable policy'
| project Policy

Remarks

If an external resource of a given type matches more than one policy defined for such type, and at least one of the matched policies has their CanCall property set to false, access to the resource is denied.
