Create a Project to use in
Automation Assembler

As a

Automation Assembler

administrator, you make a POST request with a project name to create a project. Then you add members and cloud zones to the project so that project members can deploy cloud templates to the associated zones.

Verify that all general prerequisites and prerequisites for the

Automation Assembler

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) service have been satisfied. See Prerequisites for API Use Case Examples.

Prepare parameters including the project name, description, and email addresses for administrators, members, or viewers.

Assign the project name variable.

project_name='<your_project_name>'

your_project_name is a name that you choose.

Create a project.

curl -X POST \
  "$url/iaas/api/projects?apiVersion=$api_version"
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $access_token" 
  -d '{ 
    "name" : "'$project_name'", 
    "description" : "your-description", 
    "administrators" : [{ "email" : "<admin_email>", ["type" : <"user" | "group">]}], 
    "members" : [{ "email" : "<member_email>", ["type" : <"user" | "group">]}],
    "viewers" : [{ "email" : "<viewer_email>", ["type" : <"user" | "group">]}], 
  }' | jq "."

admin_email, member_email, and viewer_email are email addresses of an administrator, member, and viewer user or name of the group in the project.

The type parameter is optional. It assigns the administrator, member, or viewer to a user or group type. If unspecified, the value defaults to

user

Get a list of projects and filter for the project with your_project_name.

curl -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' -H "Authorization: Bearer $access_token" "$url/iaas/api/projects?apiVersion=$api_version&"'$filter'"=name%20eq%20'$project_name'" | jq "."

Examine the response and record the ID of your newly created project.
