Question

Your organization currently has 40 projects sitting directly under the organization node. Leadership wants each project grouped under one of three department folders (Finance, Engineering, Marketing) so that IAM policies and organization policies can be applied per department. As the cloud engineer, what is the recommended approach to implement this grouping?

Accepted Answer

Create the three folders under the organization node, then move each project into its appropriate folder so it inherits that folder's IAM and organization policies.

Answer

Recreate all 40 projects inside the correct folders, migrate the resources, and delete the originals since projects cannot be moved after creation.

Answer

Apply department-specific IAM policies directly to each project individually, since folders only affect billing and cannot hold projects.

Answer

Create three separate organizations, one per department, and transfer the projects into the matching organization.
