Private endpoint active, but no connection string?

MongoDB Atlas
1

I created an M10 cluster, configured Azure Private Endpoint (both Atlas and Endpoint are shown as available), but when I go to cluster → connect, I don’t see an option to select the private endpoint, just set up allowed IP addresses.

Edit: I’m after the connection string to use in Compass.

What am I missing?

I also tried just adding “-pl-0” to the regular connection string - no luck

Hi @Ran_Shenhar - Welcome to the community :wave:

I created an M10 cluster, configured Azure Private Endpoint (both Atlas and Endpoint are shown as available), but when I go to cluster → connect, I don’t see an option to select the private endpoint, just set up allowed IP addresses.

The first thing I could guess at this point would be if the private link is active in a different region to where the cluster’s nodes are deployed. Could you confirm if the cluster’s region is the same as where the private link is active?

You may find the following Private Endpoint - Limitations documentation useful.

Hi Ran,

Thanks for the screenshot. I believe the private endpoint connection string option won’t appear unless you’ve deployed the private link on the same regions as the cluster’s nodes correctly. If you believe the region(s) of the cluster and the private link(s) associated with the cluster are correct and you are still not seeing the private endpoint connection string option, I would recommend contacting the Atlas Support team via the in-app chat to verify if there are any possible issues with the configuration of the private endpoint from the Atlas end.

Regards,
Jason

Thanks Jason - you are correct.
I moved the cluster to same Azure region, and everything works now.
