Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can obtain the project ID by calling the API used to query project information based on the specified criteria.

The API for obtaining a project ID is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects/, where {Endpoint} indicates the endpoint of IAM.

An endpoint is the request address for calling an API. Endpoints vary depending on services and regions. You can obtain endpoints from Endpoints.

For details about API authentication, see Authentication.
