You can manage your identity and application credentials under the Identity

Projects
The Projects
tab under Identity
lists all Red Cloud projects, with their UUIDs, to which your user belong. Additionally, you can switch the active project by clicking on the Set as Active Project
button.
The project without the Set as Active Project
button is the current active project.
Users
The Users
tab shows the UUID of your user account.
Application Credentials
Application credentials are used by the Openstack CLI client and Openstack SDK to authenticate to Red Cloud.
List Existing Application Credentials
The Application Credentials
tab under Identity
lists all of your existing application credentials. Application credentials are linked to a project and a user. You cannot see application credentials created by other users in your project.
If you are in more than one project, the Project ID
column shows the UUID of the project to which the application credential is linked.
