Retrieve LOA-CFAs

After you order a Dedicated Interconnect connection, Google sends you and the NOC (technical contact) an email with your Letter of Authorization and Connecting Facility Assignment (LOA-CFA) (one PDF file per connection). You must send these LOA-CFAs to your vendor so that they can install your connections. If you don't, your connections won't get connected.

If you can't find the LOA-CFAs in your email, retrieve them from the Google Cloud console. You can also respond to your order confirmation email for additional assistance.

After the status of a Dedicated Interconnect connection changes to PROVISIONED, the LOA-CFA is no longer valid, necessary, or available in the Google Cloud console.
