Definition
A project scopes both a credential and a token bucket. All integrations under one project share its rate limit; sandbox and live are separate projects, so their quotas and data never mix.
In plain terms
The container that holds your API credentials and your rate-limit allowance.
Why it matters here
Run one project per workload for isolated headroom, and keep sandbox separate from live. See environments and the sandbox.
