Limitations Not Listed in the Documentation: Connect your GitHub repositories to Microsoft Defender for Cloud

[arindam0310018]

Hello Team,

I did my Testing on the Recent released topic in MS Ignite 2022 - Connect your GitHub repositories to Microsoft Defender for Cloud
I also prepared a blog for the same - https://github.com/arindam0310018/14-Oct-2022-DevOps__MS-Defender-4-Cloud-DevOps-Secuirty-In-GitHub

Below limitations are not listed in your documentation:-

LIMITATIONS	REFERENCE SCREENSHOT
Connector Name Cannot be more than 20 Characters
Defender for DevOps Only Supports Central US During Preview
In Order to Create Github Connector, Subscription MUST BE Registered to "Microsoft.SecurityDevOps"
If the user waits too long after successful completion of the Step - "Authorize Defender for DevOps" + "Install Defender for DevOps Apps", it Fails to create the Connector with the Error - "The code Passed is Incorrect or Expired"

Request you to please include in the documentation.

Many Thanks
Regards, Arindam Mitra

@arindam0310018 i tried to close using the automated process and I am not sure why it did not work. Since i did not open the item i do not have access to close it other than via the automated way.

I appreciate both the feedback and the assistance with closing the item. I will look into why it did not close.
