This page provides instructions for checking to see if a private services access
connection is set up for your network. Establishing a private services access
connection for a network is a prerequisite for creating a Redis instance with
the private services access connection mode designated for that network. For
more details, see Networking.
Console
Go to the VPC Networks page in the Google Cloud console.
VPC Networks
Click the name of the VPC network that you want to verify.
Click the Private service connection tab.
Click the Private connections to services tab.
If you see a connection listed called servicenetworking-googleapis-com,
then a connection has been established for this network.
Verify if private services access is already set up for your project by
running the following command, replacing the highlighted-variables
with the appropriate values:
gcloud services vpc-peerings list --network=network --project=project-id
To select your default network use --network=default.
If a connection is enabled, the command returns the text below with the
[bracketed-values] replaced by your project's values. If a
connection is not enabled for private services access, the previous
command returns nothing.
