    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

The API for obtaining a project ID is GET https://{endpoint}/v3/projects. {Endpoint} indicates the endpoint of IAM. For details about API authentication, see Authentication.

For example, if OCR is deployed in the ap-southeast-1 region, name is ap-southeast-1,, and id in projects is the project ID. If an error is reported when obtaining the project ID, check whether {endpoint} is correct. 
GET https://iam.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com/v3/projects
