To form the basis for creating, enabling, and using all Google Cloud services, managing APIs, enabling billing, adding and removing collaborators, and managing permissions.
In Google Cloud, a project is the fundamental organizing entity. You cannot use any Google Cloud resources without a project. It forms the basis for creating and managing resources, enabling APIs, configuring billing, and managing Identity and Access Management (IAM) permissions.
