Hi friends, I’m trying to test on GCP using private service connect to access a dedicated kafka cluster.

I’m following the [instructions](https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/networking/private-links/gcp-private-service-connect.html#private-service-connect-gc-register) to create a GG network first, and connected it with my gcp project, and using private DNS resolution.

And then following [this](https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/networking/private-links/gcp-private-service-connect.html#validate-connectivity-to-ccloud) to setup the endpoints and DNS in GCP.

But when I was trying to validate the connectivities on confluent cloud following the instructions, in the gcp vm (in the same project, vpc of my private service connect), I don’t see the new dedicated cluster, but only one of the basic ones I created before when doing `confluent kafka cluster list`.  
In the meantime, at my local which is on the internet, when I run `confluent kafka cluster list`, the dedicated cluster’s showing up.

Don’t understand what’s happening.

Is the environment containing the dedicated cluster active in the CLI (starred in the output of `confluent environment list`)? Make sure to run `confluent environment use env- ***** ` first.

Alternatively, you can run `confluent kafka cluster list --all` to list clusters across all environments. Are you getting different output if you run this command locally vs from the GCP VM (and logged in as the same user)?
