Obtaining a Project ID

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can obtain a 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 IAM endpoint obtained from Regions and Endpoints. For details on API calling authentication, see Authentication.

The following is an example response. The value of id in the projects section is the project ID:

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

1. Log in to the management console.
