Azure Automation updated DNS records
Share
Services
To support new features in [Azure Automation](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/automation/), such as [Azure Private Links](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/private-link/), the automation URLs have been updated. Instead of region-specific URLs, there are now account-specific URLs. If you have an Automation account that’s defined for a specific region, use the following DNS records in your firewall security rules or to restrict hybrid runbook worker communication to that regional data centre.
**Old automation URLs:**
ac-jobruntimedata-prod-su1.azure-automation.net
ac-agentservice-prod-1.azure-automation.net
**Change to these for public cloud:**
https://<accountId>.webhook.<region>.azure-automation.net :
Required to start runbooks by doing a POST on webhook URL.
https://<accountId>.agentsvc.<region>.azure-automation.net :
Required for Automation state configuration scenario.
https://<accountId>.jrds.<region>.azure-automation.net :
Required by the hybrid runbook worker for hybrid jobs.
Where
**<accountID>** would be automation account ID,
**<region>** would be region code for each automation region.
Fetch the automation account ID from the keys section in the **Automation Account** blade:

**Note:** Linux hybrid worker registration will fail with the new URLs unless 1.6.10.2 or the version above is used. For your \*NEW\* registrations, upgrade to [the new version of Linux hybrid worker](https://github.com/Microsoft/OMS-Agent-for-Linux).
**All existing machines will continue working without any issues.** The old Automation URLs as mentioned [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/automation/automation-hybrid-runbook-worker) remain functional to allow time for you to migrate.
