Big companies also usually mandate no external ips and at least in gcp case it doesn’t work without external interface on the vm

  Does GCP not let you set up a VPN? All instances can have an interface on the VPN so that you log into the VPN and can hit your instance without it being external.

    Yes you can go on vpn or direct connect or bastion host to hit vms on private ip but their cloud shell thingy couldn’t do that last time i checked

      Their cloud shell thingy is actually just a docker container, and you can create your own to load as a replacement.
