Obtaining a Project ID

Obtaining a Project ID from the Console

A project ID is required for some URLs when an API is called. To obtain a project ID from the console, perform the following operations:

  1. Sign up and log in to the management console.
  2. Hover the pointer over the username in the upper right corner and choose My Credentials from the drop-down list.
  3. On the displayed API Credentials page, view project IDs in the project list.

    Figure 1 Viewing project IDs


    If a project contains multiple sub-projects, click the plus (+) sign to view sub-project IDs.

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can also call the API for querying project information to obtain a project ID.

The API for obtaining a project ID is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects/, where {Endpoint} indicates the IAM endpoint. For details, see Regions and Endpoints.

In the following example, id indicates a project ID.
