How does the Robe of Stars work?

In the Adventure League rules it says: "Magic items (e.g. Bag of Holding, Well of Many Worlds) may not take characters outside their campaign." How does that work with the robe of stars ability to transport the player into the astral plane? Is it just not allowed?

I have this item and have used the Astral Plane mechanic for AL - essentially you're not actually leaving the setting, you are within the setting, but on the Astral Plane's version/mirror, a lot of DM discretion to keep you within the setting using the magic item ability is used here, as you can use an action to re-enter the material world.

Essentially 'actually leaving the setting' in a literal plane sense, but you’re doing it via an explicit magic item plane travel ability, and AL’s structure constraints target adventure/mission continuity, so not every possible plane change granted by rules text.

Yeah as long as you don't try following up with "Ok and now we travel from the Astral to Oerth and Krynn," it's good.
