Get connection strings This endpoint becomes very useful when you haven’t received any information about xDB Cloud like Connection Strings, ReportingService from Sitecore Support. With this method in place, you will be able to get all the information required for your setup. https://gateway-xdb-scs.cloud.sitecore.net/api/xdb/connectionstrings/{licenseId}/{deploymentId} 2. Get Firewall settings V2 This is also one of the important thing to successfully complete the xDB Cloud setup.

Use this endpoint to get all URLs and ports specific to URL. And you have to enable the outbound connections over given ports in Firewall. h
