Viewing projects

You can view projects on the Overview page.

IBM® Cloud Manager with OpenStack projects are groups of virtual image templates and instances that are visible only to the members of that project.

IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack comes with a default project called the Public project, to which all users belong. All virtual image templates and instances that are created outside of IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack are assigned, by default, to the Public project.

When you are added as a member of a project, one of three membership roles are assigned to you.
Owner
A project owner has administrator authority to the project and its contents. The project owner primarily manages the contents of the project and who has authority to the project and its contents. Any administrator tasks for the project must be completed by using the IBM Cloud Manager - Dashboard.
User
A project user has the authority to use the project and the objects within the project. For example, a project user can launch an instance to the project. The project user primarily handles their own instances.
Viewer
A project viewer has authority only to view the project and the virtual images and instances that are contained in the project.

The membership role determines which projects you can view and what level of access you have.
