  • Procedure
  • Next Steps

When you create a project, you are added as an Project Owner for the project.

Prerequisites

To create a project for an organization, you must be either an Organization Owner or an Organization Project Creator.

Atlas for Government Considerations

You must designate projects for either standard or government (gov) region usage upon creation. You cannot deploy clusters across government and standard regions in the same project.

GCP is only available in government region use projects.

Procedure

To create a project for an organization:

1

Navigate to the Create a Project page.

  1. Select an organization for which to create a project from the Organizations menu in the navigation bar.

  2. Click the Leaf icon in the upper left corner of the page or expand the Projects menu in the navigation bar.

  3. Click New Project.

2

Enter the name for your new project.

3

Designate your project for standard or government region use.

  1. Check Designate as a Gov Cloud regions-only project if you want to deploy clusters only to gov regions. Otherwise, you may deploy AWS clusters only to standard regions. You can't deploy clusters from other cloud providers in this project.

  2. Click Next.

4

Add members.

  1. For existing AtlasGov users, enter the email that the person used to register.

  2. For new AtlasGov users, enter their email address to send an invitation.

5

Specify the access for the members.

6

Click Create Project.
