Obtaining an Account ID and Project ID

When making API calls, you may need to enter the username, user ID, project name, and project ID in some URIs. You can obtain them on the My Credentials page.

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Hover over the username in the upper right corner, and choose My Credentials.
  3. On the API Credentials page, view the username, account ID, project name, and project ID.

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can also call the API for querying project information based on the specified criteria 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.

    "projects": [ 
        { 
            "domain_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b", 
            "is_domain": false, 
            "parent_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b",
