Updates an instance's network interface. This method can only update an interface's alias IP range and attached network. See Modifying alias IP ranges for an existing instance for instructions on changing alias IP ranges. See Migrating a VM between networks for instructions on migrating an interface. This method follows PATCH semantics.

HTTP request

PATCH https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/beta/projects/{project}/zones/{zone}/instances/{instance}/updateNetworkInterface

The URL uses gRPC Transcoding syntax.

Path parameters

Parameters

Parameters
`project`	`string` Project ID for this request.
`zone`	`string` The name of the zone for this request.
`instance`	`string` The instance name for this request.

project

string

Project ID for this request.

zone

string

The name of the zone for this request.

instance

string

The instance name for this request.

Query parameters

Parameters

Parameters
`requestId`	`string` An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments. The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (`00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000`).
`networkInterface`	`string` The name of the network interface to update.

When creating an instance, if neither the network nor the subnetwork is specified, the default network `global/networks/default` is used. If the selected project doesn't have the default network, you must specify a network or subnet. If the network is not specified but the subnetwork is specified, the network is inferred. If you specify this property, you can specify the network as a full or partial URL. For example, the following are all valid URLs: `https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/project/global/networks/network` `projects/project/global/networks/network` `global/networks/default`
`subnetwork`	`string` The URL of the Subnetwork resource for this instance. If the network resource is in legacy mode, do not specify this field. If the network is in auto subnet mode, specifying the subnetwork is optional. If the network is in custom subnet mode, specifying the subnetwork is required. If you specify this field, you can specify the subnetwork as a full or partial URL. For example, the following are all valid URLs: `https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/project/regions/region/subnetworks/subnetwork` `regions/region/subnetworks/subnetwork`
`networkIP`	`string` An IPv4 internal IP address to assign to the instance for this network interface. If not specified by the user, an unused internal IP is assigned by the system.
`ipv6Address`	`string` An IPv6 internal network address for this network interface. To use a static internal IP address, it must be unused and in the same region as the instance's zone. If not specified, Google Cloud will automatically assign an internal IPv6 address from the instance's subnetwork.
`internalIpv6PrefixLength`	`integer` The prefix length of the primary internal IPv6 range.
`name`	`string` [Output Only] The name of the network interface, which is generated by the server. For a VM, the network interface uses the `nicN` naming format. Where `N` is a value between `0` and `7`. The default interface value is `nic0`.
`accessConfigs[]`	`object` An array of configurations for this interface. Currently, only one access config, `ONE_TO_ONE_NAT`, is supported. If there are no `accessConfigs` specified, then this instance will have no external internet access.
`accessConfigs[].kind`	`string` [Output Only] Type of the resource. Always `compute#accessConfig` for access configs.
`accessConfigs[].type`	`enum` The type of configuration. In `accessConfigs` (IPv4), the default and only option is `ONE_TO_ONE_NAT`. In `ipv6AccessConfigs`, the default and only option is `DIRECT_IPV6`.
`accessConfigs[].name`	`string` The name of this access configuration. In `accessConfigs` (IPv4), the default and recommended name is `External NAT`, but you can use any arbitrary string, such as `My external IP` or `Network Access`. In `ipv6AccessConfigs`, the recommend name is `External IPv6`.
`accessConfigs[].natIP`	`string` Applies to `accessConfigs` (IPv4) only. An external IP address associated with this instance.

Response body

Represents an Operation resource.

Google Compute Engine has three Operation resources:

You can use an operation resource to manage asynchronous API requests. For more information, read Handling API responses.

Operations can be global, regional or zonal.

For global operations, use the globalOperations resource.
For regional operations, use the regionOperations resource.
For zonal operations, use the zoneOperations resource.

For more information, read Global, Regional, and Zonal Resources.

Note that completed Operation resources have a limited retention period.

If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:
