Obtaining a Project ID

Obtaining a Project ID by Calling an API

You can obtain the project ID by calling the API used to query project information based on the specified criteria.

The API used to obtain a project ID is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects/. {Endpoint} is the IAM endpoint and can be obtained from Regions and Endpoints. For details about API authentication, see Authentication.

The following is a response example. In the response, id indicates the project ID in the region corresponding to name.

    "projects": [
        {
            "domain_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b",
            "is_domain": false,
            "parent_id": "65382450e8f64ac0870cd180d14e684b",
            "name": "region_id",
            "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 Management Console

When calling APIs, you need to specify the project ID in certain URLs. To do so, you need to obtain the project ID first. To obtain a project ID, perform the following operations:

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Hover the mouse over the username and select Basic Information.
3. On the displayed page, click Manage in Security Credentials.

   On the My Credentials page, view project IDs in the project list.
