Destination project

Currently when I run migratekit it creates the volumes and instance in the same project as the migratekit vm is running. Is there a way to specify a destination project for where these items are to be created?

Right now there is not a way in the migratekit.
Options I use depending on what data I am touching.

1. Run the migratekit with temp values for the network, delete the instance, do a volume transfer to the new project and then create the instance based on the volume with the correct info I need. I do have some use cases to add image-properties to the volume anyways so this makes the most sense for me.
2. Move the migrate kit instance to the project/ create a new one in the destination project. This would require adding the network that can reach VMware to the other project though.

I figured out I could actually run it using application credentials from an admin in the destination project.
To do so I used the following items in my openrc:

OS_AUTH_URL=
OS_APPLICATION_CREDENTIAL_ID=
OS_APPLICATION_CREDENTIAL_NAME=
OS_APPLICATION_CREDENTIAL_SECRET=
OS_REGION_NAME=
OS_INTERFACE=
OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3
OS_IMAGE_API_VERSION=2

Then the migrated VM was in the correct project.

whatever the project name/id which you set to the opener file it will be the project where the VM gets migrated and use the admin credentials.
