Apigee hybrid requires that you have a Google Cloud project, which you can create after you
create a Google Cloud account.
This section describes how to create a new Google Cloud project. If you want to use an existing Google Cloud
project (of which you are an owner) with hybrid, skip to Step 3: Enable APIs.
Click the Project Selector at the top of the view.
The Project Selector dialog box displays:
Click New Project in the upper right.
The New Project view displays.
Enter a friendly name for your project in the Project name field.
Google Cloud Platform generates a corresponding project ID below the Project name field, as
the following example shows:
You can change the generated project ID by clicking Edit, but the project
ID must be unique.
Take note of the project ID. You will use it later in this setup process.
In the Billing account field, select the account that you will use to pay
for your project. If you do not yet have a paid or trial account, contact Apigee Sales.
In the Location field, select a folder for your project. Folders are an
optional part of the Google Cloud Platform project resource tree.
Click Create.
Google Cloud Platform creates your new project.
After you create your project, you must enable the Apigee API to it, as described in the next
step.
