Create one peering connection in one project.

Requires Private IP Mode

You must enable private IP mode to use GCP VPC peering.

Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {GROUP-ID} is the same as your project ID. For existing groups, your group/project ID remains the same. The resource and corresponding endpoints use the term groups.
