Using the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console

To create a private endpoint

  1. In the Console, open the navigation menu and click Developer Services.
  2. Under Database Tools, click Private Endpoints. The Private Endpoints window displays a list of existing private endpoints. You can also access private endpoints from the Connection Details page.
  3. Click Create Private Endpoint and provide the following information:
    Note

    For MySQL Database Services, select a subnet from which the Database Tools Service is able to access the MySQL instance
    1. Name: Enter the name of the new private endpoint.
    2. Choose a Compartment you have permission to work in for the new private endpoint.

    3. Select either the Select Database option to specify an existing database for the private endpoint, or the Enter Network Information option to only enter the subnet for an existing VCN.

      To select a database:

      1. Select a Database Type. The types are:
        • Oracle Autonomous Database
        • Oracle Database (Bare Metal, VM, Exadata)
        • MySQL Database
        • Oracle Exadata on Oracle Public Cloud
      2. Select a Database. Only databases of the type selected in the previous step are listed. Optionally, click Change Compartment to choose a database in a different compartment.
      3. Select a Subnet. Optionally, click Change Compartment to choose a subnet in a different compartment.

      To enter network information:

      Select a Subnet for the private endpoint. Optionally, click Change Compartment to choose a subnet in a different compartment.

  4. Show Advanced Options: Optional. The following options are available:
    • Network: Use this option to specify a private endpoint network IP address.
    • Tags: Use this option to apply free-form or defined tags to the private endpoint. You must have permissions to use the tag namespace for defined tags. For more information, see Tagging Overview.
  5. Click Create to create the private endpoint for the selected database.
  1. In the Console, open the navigation menu and click Developer Services.
  2. Under Database Tools, click Private Endpoints. The Private Endpoints window displays a list of existing private endpoints. You can also access private endpoints from a Connection Details page.
  3. In the List Scope section, select the Compartment containing the private endpoint that you want to view.

  4. To display only private endpoints in a specific state, use the State menu in the Filters section. The choices are:

    • Any State (default)
    • Creating
    • Active
    • Updating
