Virtual machines, storage buckets, and datasets all belong to a project, and so do billing, access permissions, enabled APIs, and quotas. Many of the other guides in this series assume you already have a project selected, which is why creating one correctly is the first real step.<\/p>\r\n<p>Every project has three identifiers, and two of them matter the moment you create it. The project name is a label for people and can be changed later. The project ID is globally unique and cannot be changed once the project exists, so a careless choice means starting a new project. And a deleted project is only recoverable for 30 days, so it helps to know how shutdown and restore work before you need them.<\/p>\r\n<p>This walks through signing up and starting the free trial, creating a project and choosing its name and ID, then shutting a project down and restoring it.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Step by Step Process of Creating, Deleting, and Restoring a Google Cloud Project<\/h2>\r\n<h3>Step One: Start at Google Cloud<\/h3>\r\n<p>Go to cloud.google.com and choose the option to get started for free.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6418\" src=\"https:\/\/prwatech.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image-30.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"655\" height=\"313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prwatech.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image-30.png 628w, https:\/\/prwatech.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/image-30-300x144.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 655px) 100vw, 655px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3>Step Two: Sign In With a Google Account<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sign in with the email address and password of your Google Account.

If you want to hold on to a particular ID for future use, Google&#8217;s guidance is to delete the resources inside the project instead of shutting the project itself down.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Common Mistakes to Avoid<\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Accepting the suggested project ID without reading it. The name can be edited later, but the ID is permanent.<\/li>\r\n<li>Assuming a Gmail address is required. Any Google Account works, including one created with an existing email address.<\/li>\r\n<li>Shutting down a project and expecting to restore it months later. After 30 days it is gone for good.<\/li>\r\n<li>Planning to reuse a deleted project&#8217;s ID. A deleted project&#8217;s ID can never be used again.<\/li>\r\n<li>Creating a project without a billing account and wondering why resources will not start. Billing has to be enabled on the project first.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>That covers creating a Google Cloud project with the right name and ID, and shutting one down or bringing it back.
