PrivateLink enables a private connection from any dbt Cloud Multi-Tenant environment to your data platform hosted on AWS using [AWS PrivateLink](https://aws.amazon.com/privatelink/) technology. PrivateLink allows dbt Cloud customers to meet security and compliance controls as it allows connectivity between dbt Cloud and your data platform without traversing the public internet. This feature is supported in most regions across NA, Europe, and Asia, but [contact us](https://www.getdbt.com/contact/) if you have questions about availability.

:::caution Environment variables

Using [Environment variables](/docs/build/environment-variables) when configuring PrivateLink endpoints isn't supported in dbt Cloud. Instead, use [Extended Attributes](/docs/deploy/deploy-environments#extended-attributes) to dynamically change these values in your dbt Cloud environment.

This is only sorta true, since it technically works in ST. There's some nuance I guess though in that in ST, you dont configure to use a PL endpoint in-app, where as you do in MT. Do we foresee this causing extra confusion/issues for customers due to this difference?

To be clear though, I'm more than happy for us to just say across the board, regardless of ST vs MT, that we just dont want folks to use env vars for their connection hostnames if they use PL.
