# Project settings

Middleware Projects organizes environments or clients within your account. Separate projects can distinguish staging from production or keep different client workloads organized.

Each project has a name and alias subdomain. Project assignments determine which projects an invited user can access.

## View Projects

Go to: [Settings → Projects](https://app.middleware.io/settings/projects)

The Projects page shows all projects available in your Middleware account.

From here, you can view existing projects or create a new project.

## Create a Project

You need **Admin** permission to create a new project.

To create a project:

1. Go to **[Settings → Projects](https://app.middleware.io/settings/projects)**.
2. Click **[Create Project](https://app.middleware.io/settings/projects?panel=create-update-project)**.
3. Enter the project details.
4. Create the project.

When creating a project, configure the following:

- **Name** — Name used to identify the project.
- **Alias Subdomain** — Subdomain used to create the URL for accessing the project.
- **Description** — Additional information about the project.

The **Alias Subdomain** becomes part of the project URL and is used when accessing that project in Middleware.

## Access Projects

You can view your available projects from the project menu on the left side of Middleware.

The projects shown depend on your access:

- **Users** see the projects assigned to them.
- **Admins** can see all projects.

Select a project from the menu to switch to that project.

## Give Users Access to Projects

Project access can be configured when inviting a new user.

Go to: **[Settings → Users](https://app.middleware.io/settings/user)**

When inviting the user, select the projects you want them to access.

Use **Projects** to organize your Middleware account and control which projects are available to individual users.
