Azure MySQL Connection

Question

User694411018 posted
Hi,
Will like to know how I can connect remotely to a MySQL database in an Azure VM.
I am using asp.net, but I am not able to establish a connection to MySQL.
This is a VM hosting a WordPress site. And I want to display some data in an asp.net c# application.
Already did this;
Create endpoint in Azure for mysql
Open the port in the firewall
Granted access to the user
But still habent been able to connect.

Any help will be very appreciated.

Thanks for your reply. 

I figured out the problem. It was a firewall issue.
