| 13 | +# Access Key Vault in private network through Shared Private Endpoints |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +Azure SignalR Service can access your Key Vault in private network through Shared Private Endpoints. In this way you don't have to expose your Key Vault on public network. |
| 16 | + |

| 19 | +## Shared Private Link Resources Management |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +Private endpoints of secured resources that are created through Azure SignalR Service APIs are referred to as *shared private link resources*. This is because you're "sharing" access to a resource, such as an Azure Key Vault, that has been integrated with the [Azure Private Link service](https://azure.microsoft.com/services/private-link/). These private endpoints are created inside Azure SignalR Service execution environment and aren't directly visible to you. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +> [!NOTE] |
| 24 | +> The examples in this article are based on the following assumptions: |
| 25 | +> * The resource ID of this Azure SignalR Service is _/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.SignalRService/signalr/contoso-signalr_. |
| 26 | +> * The resource ID of Azure Key Vault is _/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/contoso-kv_. |
| 27 | +
|
| 28 | +The rest of the examples show how the *contoso-signalr* service can be configured so that its outbound calls to Key Vault go through a private endpoint rather than public network. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +### Step 1: Create a shared private link resource to the Key Vault |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +#### [Azure portal](#tab/azure-portal) |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +1. In the Azure portal, go to your Azure SignalR Service resource. |
| 35 | +1. In the menu pane, select **Networking**. Switch to **Private access** tab. |
| 36 | +1. Click **Add shared private endpoint**. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of shared private endpoints management." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-management.png" lightbox="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-management.png" ::: |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +1. Fill in a name for the shared private endpoint. |
| 41 | +1. Select the target linked resource either by selecting from your owned resources or by filling a resource ID. |
| 42 | +1. Click **Add**. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of adding a shared private endpoint." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-add.png" ::: |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +1. The shared private endpoint resource will be in **Succeeded** provisioning state. The connection state is **Pending** approval at target resource side. |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of an added shared private endpoint." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-added.png" lightbox="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-added.png" ::: |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +#### [Azure CLI](#tab/azure-cli) |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +You can make the following API call with the [Azure CLI](/cli/azure/) to create a shared private link resource: |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +```dotnetcli |
| 55 | +az rest --method put --uri https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.SignalRService/signalr/contoso-signalr/sharedPrivateLinkResources/kv-pe?api-version=2021-06-01-preview --body @create-pe.json |
| 56 | +``` |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +The contents of the *create-pe.json* file, which represent the request body to the API, are as follows: |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +```json |
| 61 | +{ |
| 62 | + "name": "contoso-kv", |
| 63 | + "properties": { |
| 64 | + "privateLinkResourceId": "/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/contoso-kv", |
| 65 | + "groupId": "vault", |
| 66 | + "requestMessage": "please approve" |
| 67 | + } |
| 68 | +} |
| 69 | +``` |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +The process of creating an outbound private endpoint is a long-running (asynchronous) operation. As in all asynchronous Azure operations, the `PUT` call returns an `Azure-AsyncOperation` header value that looks like the following: |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +```plaintext |
| 74 | +"Azure-AsyncOperation": "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.SignalRService/signalr/contoso-signalr/operationStatuses/c0786383-8d5f-4554-8d17-f16fcf482fb2?api-version=2021-06-01-preview" |
| 75 | +``` |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +You can poll this URI periodically to obtain the status of the operation. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +If you're using the CLI, you can poll for the status by manually querying the `Azure-AsyncOperationHeader` value, |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +```dotnetcli |
| 82 | +az rest --method get --uri https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.SignalRService/signalr/contoso-signalr/operationStatuses/c0786383-8d5f-4554-8d17-f16fcf482fb2?api-version=2021-06-01-preview |
| 83 | +``` |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +Wait until the status changes to "Succeeded" before proceeding to the next steps. |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +----- |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +### Step 2a: Approve the private endpoint connection for the Key Vault |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +#### [Azure portal](#tab/azure-portal) |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +1. In the Azure portal, select the **Networking** tab of your Key Vault and navigate to **Private endpoint connections**. After the asynchronous operation has succeeded, there should be a request for a private endpoint connection with the request message from the previous API call. |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of the Azure portal, showing the Private endpoint connections pane." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-key-vault-approve-private-endpoint.png" ::: |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +1. Select the private endpoint that Azure SignalR Service created. Click **Approve**. |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | + Make sure that the private endpoint connection appears as shown in the following screenshot. It could take one to two minutes for the status to be updated in the portal. |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of the Azure portal, showing an Approved status on the Private endpoint connections pane." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-key-vault-approved-private-endpoint.png" ::: |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +#### [Azure CLI](#tab/azure-cli) |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +1. List private endpoint connections. |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | + ```dotnetcli |
| 108 | + az network private-endpoint-connection list -n <key-vault-resource-name> -g <key-vault-resource-group-name> --type 'Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults' |
| 109 | + ``` |
| 110 | +
|
| 111 | + There should be a pending private endpoint connection. Note down its ID. |
| 112 | +
|
| 113 | + ```json |
| 114 | + [ |
| 115 | + { |
| 116 | + "id": "<id>", |
| 117 | + "location": "", |
| 118 | + "name": "", |
| 119 | + "properties": { |
| 120 | + "privateLinkServiceConnectionState": { |
| 121 | + "actionRequired": "None", |
| 122 | + "description": "Please approve", |
| 123 | + "status": "Pending" |
| 124 | + } |
| 125 | + } |
| 126 | + } |
| 127 | + ] |
| 128 | + ``` |
| 129 | +
|
| 130 | +1. Approve the private endpoint connection. |
| 131 | +
|
| 132 | + ```dotnetcli |
| 133 | + az network private-endpoint-connection approve --id <private-endpoint-connection-id> |
| 134 | + ``` |
| 135 | +
|
| 136 | +----- |
| 137 | +
|
| 138 | +### Step 2b: Query the status of the shared private link resource |
| 139 | +
|
| 140 | +It takes minutes for the approval to be propagated to Azure SignalR Service. You can check the state using either Azure portal or Azure CLI. |
| 141 | +
|
| 142 | +#### [Azure portal](#tab/azure-portal) |
| 143 | +
|
| 144 | + :::image type="content" alt-text="Screenshot of an approved shared private endpoint." source="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-approved.png" lightbox="media\howto-shared-private-endpoints-key-vault\portal-shared-private-endpoints-approved.png" ::: |
| 145 | +
|
| 146 | +#### [Azure CLI](#tab/azure-cli) |
| 147 | +
|
| 148 | +```dotnetcli |
| 149 | +az rest --method get --uri https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.SignalRService/signalr/contoso-signalr/sharedPrivateLinkResources/func-pe?api-version=2021-06-01-preview |
| 150 | +``` |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +This would return a JSON, where the connection state would show up as "status" under the "properties" section. |
| 153 | + |
| 154 | +```json |
| 155 | +{ |
| 156 | + "name": "contoso-kv", |
| 157 | + "properties": { |
| 158 | + "privateLinkResourceId": "/subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/contoso/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/contoso-kv", |
| 159 | + "groupId": "vaults", |
| 160 | + "requestMessage": "please approve", |
| 161 | + "status": "Approved", |
| 162 | + "provisioningState": "Succeeded" |
| 163 | + } |
| 164 | +} |
| 165 | + |
| 166 | +``` |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +If the "Provisioning State" (`properties.provisioningState`) of the resource is `Succeeded` and "Connection State" (`properties.status`) is `Approved`, it means that the shared private link resource is functional and Azure SignalR Service can communicate over the private endpoint. |
| 169 | + |
| 170 | +----- |
| 171 | + |
| 172 | +At this point, the private endpoint between Azure SignalR Service and Azure Key Vault is established. |
| 173 | + |
| 174 | +Now you can configure features like custom domain as usual. **You don't have to use a special domain for Key Vault**. DNS resolution is automatically handled by Azure SignalR Service. |
