Support for Azure Managed Grafana connecting to Azure Cosmos DB NoSQL via Private Link

Currently, Azure Managed Grafana does not support connecting to Azure Cosmos DB NoSQL via Private Link. We can only create managed private endpoints for Managed Grafana Enterprise for Cosmos DB Mongo DB. Is support for connecting to Azure Cosmos DB NoSQL via Private Link on the roadmap to be supported?

    Hi David,

    You've hit on a really important gap in the Azure Managed Grafana offering )) i

    what I can see in the current documentation and feature announcements, private endpoint support for Cosmos DB NoSQL with Azure Managed Grafana isn't available yet. The managed private endpoints feature specifically calls out MongoDB API support but doesn't mention the core NoSQL API.

    For now, you might need to consider some workarounds while waiting for native support. One approach is setting up a data export pipeline from Cosmos DB NoSQL to a storage account that does have private link support, then connecting Grafana to that processed data. It's not ideal, but it can maintain your security posture.

    Another option is using the Azure Data Explorer connector in Grafana if your data patterns allow for it. Sometimes you can structure your queries to work with both services.

    For getting this feature on the roadmap, I'd recommend creating a feature request in the Azure Feedback Forum. The product team actively monitors these requests, and if enough people vote for Cosmos DB NoSQL private link support, it increases the priority for implementation.

    You could also check the Azure Updates page regularly - they announce new Grafana features there frequently, and private link expansions are common incremental improvements.

    regards,

    Alex
