Prerequisites

Create a new Google Cloud project. When you do, be sure to note the project ID and project number. You'll need the ID and number later in this process.

Project names must adhere to the following guidelines:

• Start with a lower-case letter. For example, my-org is OK, but _my-org is not.
• Include the following characters only:
  • Lower-case letters: a-z
  • Numbers: 0-9
  • Hyphens: -

  For example:

   VALID NAMES 
   INVALID NAMES 
   my-project 
   my_project        No underscores 
   first-project 
   1st-project       Cannot start with a number 
   google-project 
   project@google    No special chars except hyphens
