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, perform the following operations:

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click the username and select Basic Information from the drop-down list.
3. On the Account Info page, click Manage.

   On the API Credentials page, view project IDs in the project list.

   If there are multiple projects in one region, expand Region and view subproject IDs in the Project ID column.

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 is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects/, where {Endpoint} indicates the Identity and Access Management (IAM) endpoint. For details, see Regions and Endpoints. For details about API authentication, see Authentication.

In the following example, id indicates the project ID.
