Resource Manager documentation
Google Cloud provides container resources such as
organizations and projects that allow you to group and hierarchically organize
other Google Cloud resources. This hierarchical organization helps you
manage common aspects of your resources, such as access control and
configuration settings. The Resource Manager API enables you to
programmatically manage these container resources.
