Obtaining a 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 Based on the Specified Criteria.

The API for obtaining a project ID is GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/projects/. {Endpoint} indicates the endpoint of IAM, which can be obtained 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": "ap-southeast-3", 
            "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 your cursor over the username and choose Basic Information from the drop-down list.
3. On the Basic Information page, click Manage next to Security Credentials.

   On the displayed API Credentials page, view project IDs in the project list.

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