Use the generic connection Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) routes for searching, updating and deleting Layer 2 Google Cloud Engine Direct Connect Partner connections.

Prerequisites

  • The authenticated user account has Network Admin permissions.

  • The source port is ACTIVE.

  • You are requesting paymentType "invoice", or, if requesting paymentType "plan", the subscription associated with the port has sufficient entitlements to complete the request.
