Private Google Access enables virtual machine instances on a subnet to reach Google APIs and services using an internal IP address rather than an external IP address. External IP addresses are routable and reachable over the Internet. Internal (private) IP addresses are internal to Google Cloud Platform and are not routable or reachable over the Internet. You can use Private Google Access to allow VMs without Internet access to reach Google APIs, services, and properties that are accessible over HTTP/HTTPS.
