Obtaining an IAM Project ID

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

A project ID can also be obtained by calling a specific API. For details, see Querying Project Information.

The API for obtaining an IAM project ID is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects, where {Endpoint} indicates the IAM endpoint. You can obtain the IAM endpoint from Regions and Endpoints. For details about API authentication, see Authentication.

In the following example, id indicates a project ID.

{
    "projects": [
        {
            "domain_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b",
            "is_domain": false,
            "parent_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b",
            "name": "xxxxxxxx",
            "description": "",
            "links": {
                "next": null,
                "previous": null,
                "self": "https://www.example.com/v3/projects/a4a5d4098fb4474fa22cd05f897d6b99"
            },
            "id": "a4a5d4098fb4474fa22cd05f897d6b99",
            "enabled": true
        }
    ],
    "links": {
        "next": null,
        "previous": null,
        "self": "https://www.example.com/v3/projects"
    }
}

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. Hover over the username in the upper-right corner and select My Credentials from the drop-down list.

    As shown in the following figure, on the API Credentials page, view the project ID in the project list.

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