# Projects

> Manage projects in an organization.

Projects are the primary data isolation boundary in CDF. All objects in CDF belong to a single project, and objects in different projects are isolated from each other. Every CDF API request targets a specific project through the URL path `/api/v1/projects/{project}/...`.

## Projects and organizations

Projects belong to an [organization](/api-reference/concepts/20230101/organizations). When you create a project, you assign it to one of the organization's allowed clusters. The project inherits the organization's OIDC configuration for authentication.

<Note>
  A project cannot be moved to a different cluster after creation.
</Note>

## Access control

Access within a project is managed through [groups](/api-reference/concepts/20230101/groups) and capabilities. When creating a project, you can specify a `projectAdminGroupId` to designate which IdP group has admin access. If you don't specify one, the project inherits the organization's admin group.

## Key capabilities

* **Create projects** within an organization on a specified cluster
* **List projects** in an organization
* **Configure OIDC settings** inherited from the parent organization
* **Assign project admin groups** to control administrative access
