looker Studio: connect to database in Google cloud internally?

Hello All,

I have a setup where I have a Mariadb install on a vm in Google Cloud. Some applications like Mydbr that are also on vm's on GCP connect to Mariadb via internal netwerk. So far the Maradb vm did not need an external ip address and I slept very well at night.

Then came looker studio. As far as I can tell in order to be able to connect from Looker studio OR Looker studio pro, I will need to give the vm an external ip address. Off course I can secure it with ssl/tls.

Is this correct? Is there another way?

Many thanks for any help, j.
