# Calling a private Cloud Function from On-premises

This example shows how to invoke a private Google Cloud Function from the on-prem environment via a Private Service Connect endpoint.

According to the [documentation](https://cloud.google.com/functions/docs/networking/network-settings#ingress_settings), only requests from VPC networks in the same project or VPC Service Controls perimeter are allowed to call a private Cloud Function. That's the reason why a Private Service Connect endpoint is needed in this architecture.

The Terraform script in this folder will create two projects connected via VPN: one to simulate the on-prem environment and another containing the Cloud Function and the Private Service Connect endpoint.

The "on-prem" project contains a small VM that can be used to test the accessibility to the private Cloud Function:

```bash
curl https://YOUR_REGION-YOUR_PROJECT_ID.cloudfunctions.net/YOUR_FUNCTION_NAME
```
