Obtaining a Project ID

Scenarios

A project ID is required for some URLs when an API is called. Obtain a project ID using either of the following methods:

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can obtain the project ID by calling the API used to query project information.

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

Here is an example response, where id indicates the project ID.
