Step 4. Specify Project or Folder

At the Project or Folder step of the wizard, specify the ID of a project or folder that manages the resources that you want to protect. If you choose a folder, Veeam Backup for Google Cloud will be able to access all resources in all projects that belong to this folder.

You can find the project and folder IDs on the Dashboard page in the Google Cloud console. For more information, see Google Cloud documentation.
