In some cases, you may need to override the default endpoint used by the client library.

Use the google::cloud::EndpointOption when initializing the client library to change this default. For example, this will override the default endpoint for google::cloud::bigtable::Table:

  namespace bigtable = ::google::cloud::bigtable;
  [](std::string const& project_id, std::string const& instance_id,
     std::string const& table_id) {
    auto options = google::cloud::Options{}.set<google::cloud::EndpointOption>(
        "private.googleapis.com");
    auto resource = bigtable::TableResource(project_id, instance_id, table_id);
    return bigtable::Table(bigtable::MakeDataConnection(options), resource);
  }

Changing the default endpoint for other *Client classes is very similar, as shown in these examples:
