    Rivery supports PrivateLink in the next regions:

    On console.rivery.io:

    • us-east-1
    • us-east-2
    • us-west-2
      On eu-west-1.console.rivery.io
    • eu-west-1
    • eu-central-1

    1. Wait for a while until the endpoint will be available, and a green v is shown up.
      After that, copy the command aside, and get the --service-name value:
