Projects provide a\nlifecycle and policy boundary for resources, allowing for multiple groups of\nusers to manage GDC resources separately.\n\nThis page is for audiences such as IT administrators, security engineers, and\nnetwork administrators within the platform administrator group, who are\nresponsible for managing resources within their organization. For more information,\nsee [Audiences for GDC air-gapped documentation](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/resources/audiences).\n\nBefore you begin\n----------------\n\nTo get the permissions needed to create a project, ask your Organization\nIAM Admin to grant you the Project Creator role (`project-creator`).\n\nBefore you create a project, review the information Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) air-gapped\nuses to identify your project:\n\n- **Project name**: A human-readable name for your project.\n\n The project name isn't used by any GDC APIs. You can\n edit the project name at any time during or after project creation. Project\n names don't need to be unique.\n\n Projects have the following name requirements:\n - 4 to 30 characters in length.\n - Contains letters, numbers, single quotes, hyphens, spaces, or exclamation points.\n- **Project ID**: A globally unique identifier for your project.\n\n A project ID is a unique string used to differentiate your project from all\n others in GDC. You can only modify the project ID\n when you're creating the project.\n | **Note:** The namespaces propagated by a project are the same as the project ID.\n\n Project IDs have the following requirements:\n - 6 to 30 characters in length.\n - Contains lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.\n - Starts with a letter.\n - Must not start with the prefix `g-`, such as `g-project`.\n - Must not end with a hyphen.\n - Must not end with the string `-cluster` or `-system`. The `-system` suffix is reserved for projects created by GDC.\n - Must not be in use or previously used; this includes deleted projects.\n\nDon't include sensitive information in your project name, project ID, or other\nresource names. The project ID is used in the name of many other\nGDC resources, and any reference to the project or\nrelated resources exposes the project ID and resource name.\n\nCreate a new project\n--------------------\n\nYou can create a project to provide logical grouping of service resources. For\nexample, you can create separate projects to hold resources for development,\ntest, and production environments.\n\nTo get the permissions that you need to create a project, ask your Organization\nIAM Admin to grant you the Project Creator role. For more information on\ngranting permissions, see the\n[Assign a role binding to the service identity](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/service-identity#assign_a_role_binding_to_the_service_identity)\nsection. \n\n### Console\n\nTo create a new project using the GDC console, complete the\nfollowing steps:\n\n1. In the navigation menu, click **Projects**.\n2. Click **Add project**.\n3. In the **Project name** field, enter a project name.\n4. Click **Continue**.\n5. Optional: Configure your project's networking capabilities. Clear the **Enable data exfiltration protection** checkbox to disable all egress traffic to other projects inside your organization.\n6. Click **Continue**.\n7. In the **Review** section, review the summary and click **Create**.\n8. To verify the new project is available, a message is displayed in the console: `Project `\u003cvar class=\"readonly\" translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_NAME\u003c/var\u003e`\n successfully created`.\n9. [Link your new project](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/billing/manage-billing-accounts#link_a_project) with a billing account. To track project resource costs, you must have an associated billing account linked to your project.\n\n### gdcloud\n\nTo create a new project using the gdcloud CLI, complete the\nfollowing steps:\n\n1. Ensure you have the gdcloud CLI installed. For more\n information, see the gdcloud CLI\n [Overview](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/resources/gdcloud-overview#download_and_install_the)\n page.\n\n2. To create a project, run:\n\n gdcloud projects create \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e\n\n Replace \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e with the unique identifier for\n your new project.\n | **Important:** The gdcloud CLI does not support attaching a project to a Kubernetes cluster. You must do this in the GDC console after the project is created by following [Attach project to a cluster](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform-application/pa-ao-operations/cluster#attach-project-to-cluster).\n3. To verify the new project is available, run:\n\n gdcloud projects list\n\n4. [Link your new project](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/billing/manage-billing-accounts#link_a_project)\n with a billing account. To track project resource costs, you must have\n an associated billing account linked to your project.\n\n### API\n\nTo create a new project using the API directly, complete the following\nsteps:\n\n1. Set an environment variable for the global management API server\n kubeconfig file:\n\n export KUBECONFIG=\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eGLOBAL_API_SERVER_KUBECONFIG\u003c/var\u003e\n\n If you don't have the global management API server kubeconfig file,\n [generate one](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/iam/sign-in).\n2. Create and apply the `Project` custom resource:\n\n kubectl apply -f --kubeconfig=${KUBECONFIG} - \u003c\u003cEOF\n apiVersion: resourcemanager.global.gdc.goog/v1\n kind: Project\n metadata:\n namespace: platform\n name: \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e\n EOF\n\n Replace \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e with the unique identifier\n for your new project.\n | **Important:** The `Project` custom resource does not directly support attaching a Kubernetes cluster. You must do this in the GDC console after the project is provisioned by following [Attach project to a cluster](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform-application/pa-ao-operations/cluster#attach-project-to-cluster).\n3. Verify the new project is available:\n\n kubectl --kubeconfig=${KUBECONFIG} get namespaces\n\n4. [Link your new project](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/billing/manage-billing-accounts#link_a_project)\n with a billing account. To track project resource costs, you must have\n an associated billing account linked to your project.\n\n### Terraform\n\nTo create a new project using Terraform, complete the following\nsteps:\n\n1. Ensure you have Terraform configured and the appropriate permissions set.\n For more information, see the\n [Configure Terraform](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/resources/configure-terraform) page.\n\n2. In a Terraform configuration file, insert the following code snippet:\n\n provider \"kubernetes\" {\n config_path = \"\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eGLOBAL_API_SERVER_KUBECONFIG\u003c/var\u003e\"\n }\n\n Replace \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eGLOBAL_API_SERVER_KUBECONFIG\u003c/var\u003e with the path to\n the global management API server's kubeconfig file. If you don't have this\n kubeconfig file,\n [generate one](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/iam/sign-in).\n3. In a Terraform configuration file, such as `main.tf`, insert the\n following code snippet:\n\n resource \"kubernetes_manifest\" \"project-create\" {\n manifest = {\n \"apiVersion\" = \"resourcemanager.global.gdc.goog/v1\"\n \"kind\" = \"Project\"\n \"metadata\" = {\n \"name\" = \"\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e\"\n \"namespace\" = \"platform\"\n }\n }\n }\n\n Replace \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e with the unique identifier\n for your new project.\n | **Important:** The `Project` Kubernetes manifest does not directly support attaching a Kubernetes cluster. You must do this in the GDC console after the project is provisioned by following [Attach project to a cluster](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform-application/pa-ao-operations/cluster#attach-project-to-cluster).\n4. Apply the new project using Terraform:\n\n terraform apply\n\n5. [Link your new project](/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/gdch/platform/pa-user/billing/manage-billing-accounts#link_a_project)\n with a billing account. To track project resource costs, you must have\n an associated billing account linked to your project."]]
