 ## Limitations
 
 - You'll need to use our **2023-10-27-preview REST API** to create and use private link for agent-based experiments ONLY. There's **no** support for private link for agent-based experiments in our GA-stable REST API until H1 2024. 
 
 - The entire end-to-end for this flow requires some use of the CLI. The current end-to-end experience cannot be done from the Azure portal currently. 
 
 - The **Chaos Studio Private Accesses (CSPA)** resource type has a **strict 1:1 mapping of Chaos Target:CSPA Resource (abstraction for private endpoint).**.** We only allow **5 CSPA resources to be created per Subscription** to maintain the expected experience for all of our customers.

-> [!NOTE]
-> If you are going to be using private endpoints using manual requests across multiple subscriptions, you'll need to ensure you register the Microsoft.Network Resource Provider (RP) in your respective tenants/subscriptions. See [Register RP](../azure-resource-manager/management/resource-providers-and-types.md) for more info about this.

 During the Preview of this feature, customers need to update the Agent VM extensions settings to point to the communication endpoint that supports traffic over a private network. Customers need to update the host entry on the actual VM to map the communication endpoint to the private IP generated during the private endpoint creation. You can get the IP address from the "DNS Configuration" tab in the Private Endpoint resource seen in the following screenshot:

After successful registration, the agent will be able to heartbeat its status and you can go ahead and run the chaos agent-based experiments using private endpoints!
