The behavior of the Google
Clould (GCP) projects used by scripts has been altered. Now, the
default GCP projects that Apps Script creates for new scripts are hidden and
script owners can't access them directly. Admins and domain users with the
resourcemanager.projects.list permission on the parenting GCP folder can still access default GCP projects. If you need access to a script's GCP project (because you wish to publish it or take a similar action), it's best to switch your script to use a standard GCP project.
