I wanted to create an account to new google vision api to possibly integrate its service in the app http://www.openbricks.io I am working on.

But the form to have access to this new api ask for an account on Google Cloud platform, it is my case, but also a mystical Google Cloud platform user account Id, I cannot find no where Google Cloud help is a real maze and to have support we need to pay.

Is anyone using Google Cloud Platform? And know how to get this id ?

It is simply the email address you're using for Google Cloud Platform.

To use the Google Cloud Platform, you create a project, which handles billing, team access, API configuration and the like - all api calls and such will be associated with a project. Those projects have an id, which I think is what you're referring to.

In brief: you create a project by creating it in the Google Cloud Console. Once you've created a project, there should be a field in the UI that specifies the project id.
