Private access error when using VPC

When trying to set the Terraform argument private_access you may encounter the following error message:

Error: Private only access to service ports cannot be enabled for the service's network

This error message is seen because the private_access argument is restricted to certain specific networks within Aiven's internal systems.

Projects that are in a VPC are designed private by default, so there is no need to set private_access in your Terraform resource, and any attempt to do so will result in the above error message.

Refer to the official Terraform registry for Aiven Provider for Terraform to learn about the usage of private_access argument in further detail.
