# How to Override the Default Endpoint

3.7.0-rc 3.6.0 (latest) 3.5.0 3.4.0 3.3.0 3.2.0 2.48.0-rc 2.47.1 2.46.0 2.45.0 2.44.0 2.43.0 2.42.0 2.41.0 2.40.0 2.39.0 2.38.0 2.37.0 In some cases, you may need to override the default endpoint used by the client library. Use the [EndpointOption](https://docs.cloud.google.com/cpp/docs/reference/common/latest/structgoogle_1_1cloud_1_1EndpointOption.html) when initializing the client library to change this default.

For example, this will override the default endpoint for `storagebatchoperations_v1::StorageBatchOperationsClient`:

      // This configuration is common with Private Google Access:
      //     https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/private-google-access
      auto options = google::cloud::Options{}.set<google::cloud::EndpointOption>(
          "private.googleapis.com");
      auto vpc_client =
          google::cloud::storagebatchoperations_v1::StorageBatchOperationsClient(
              google::cloud::storagebatchoperations_v1::
                  MakeStorageBatchOperationsConnection(options));
