Obtaining the Project ID¶
A project ID or project name is required in some API requests. You need to obtain the project ID and name before calling an API.
Obtaining a Project ID and Name from the Console¶
Log in to the management console.
In the upper right corner of the page, click the username and choose My Credentials from the drop-down list. The My Credentials page is displayed.
In the project list, view Project ID and Project Name.
Figure 1 Viewing the project ID and name¶
If there are multiple projects, unfold the target region and obtain the project ID from the Project ID column.
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://{iam-endpoint}/v3/projects. {iam-endpoint} indicates the endpoint of IAM, which can be obtained from Endpoint. For details about how to obtain the IAM endpoint, see Authentication.
The following is an example response. For example, if OCR is deployed in the xxx region, the value of name in the response body is xxx. The value of id in projects is the project ID. If there are multiple projects, unfold the target region and obtain the project ID from the Project ID column.
