Organizations and Projects
- OAuth 2.0 authentication for programmatic access to Cloud Manager is available as a Preview feature.
- The feature and the corresponding documentation might change at any time during the Preview period. To use OAuth 2.0 authentication, create a service account to use in your requests to the Cloud Manager Public API.
Important
New
Cloud Manager provides a new organizations and projects hierarchy to help you manage your Cloud Manager deployments. Groups are now known as projects. You can create many projects in an organization.
Organizations
In the organizations and projects hierarchy, an organization can contain many projects (previously referred to as groups). Under this structure, you can:
Use the same billing settings across multiple projects in your organization.
View all projects within an organization, create teams of users, and assign teams to projects. See Organizations.
Connect to Atlas as part of live migration to Atlas. See Connect to Atlas.
Projects
Groups are now projects. Previously, users managed deployments by groups, where each group was managed separately even if a user belonged to multiple groups.
Existing Groups
If you have existing groups, organizations have been automatically created for your groups (now projects), and your groups have been placed under these organizations.
If your groups share the same billing settings, they have been placed in the same organization.
Deployments
Deployments are now associated with projects. As before, deployments must have unique names within projects. See Projects and Edit Project Settings.
Teams
You can create teams of users and then assign teams of users to projects. See Cloud Manager Access.
Invitations to Organizations and Projects
You can view and accept invitations to organizations and projects. See Invitations to Organizations and Projects.
