Organize your infrastructure resources into App Hub applications using an
app-enabled folder (Preview)
or a host project.
App-enabled folder
Recommended
An app-enabled folder is a Google Cloud folder that lets you group
infrastructure resources as services and workloads in App Hub
applications. App-enabled folders provision application management across
all the projects under the folder. App-enabled folders also have access to
features such as Application Design Center and
Gemini Cloud Assist.
For more information on how to set up your App Hub applications in an
app-enabled folder, see
Set up App Hub for an app-enabled folder.
Host project
A host project is a Google Cloud project that that lets you group
infrastructure resources as services and workloads in App Hub
applications. For more information, see
Set up App Hub for a host project.
