Projects

About​

Projects provide a way to organize your cloud resources into logical groups. You can assign instances, VPCs, load balancers, S3 buckets, SSH keys, and user scripts to projects for better visibility and management of your infrastructure.

Use projects to separate resources by application, environment (production, staging, development), client, or any organizational structure that fits your workflow.

Creating a Project​

  1. Navigate to Projects in the user sidebar (under the Organization section)
  2. Click Create Project
  3. Enter a Name and optional Description
  4. Click Create

Assigning Resources​

Resources can be assigned to a project from the resource's own management page. A Project dropdown is available on the following resource pages:

Instances​

On the instance manage page, select a project from the Project dropdown to assign or reassign the instance.

VPCs​

On the VPCs index page, use the project assignment dropdown on each VPC card.

Load Balancers​

On the load balancer detail page, use the project assignment dropdown.

S3 Buckets​

On the S3 bucket detail page, use the project assignment dropdown.

SSH Keys​

On the SSH Keys index page, use the project assignment dropdown for each key.

User Scripts​

On the User Scripts index page, use the project assignment dropdown for each script.

Bulk Assignment

Resources can also be assigned to projects in bulk from the project detail page using the resource assignment interface.

Filtering by Project​

When a project is selected, resource listing pages across the panel will filter to show only resources belonging to that project. This makes it easy to focus on a specific application or environment without the noise of unrelated infrastructure.

Conclusion​

Projects are a lightweight organizational tool that requires no configuration. Create projects, assign resources, and gain instant clarity over your infrastructure groupings. Whether you're managing a single application or dozens, projects help keep everything organized and accessible.
