Projects, Policies, and Controls API

Governance Service exposes APIs for the core governance hierarchy: organizations contain projects, policies contain controls, and applied policies connect policy requirements to a project.

Projects represent governed systems or workflows. Project APIs support creation, listing, update, archive behavior, and project-specific governance state.

Policies define reusable governance requirements. The policy library is shared at the organization level and can be applied to one or more projects.

Controls are the individual requirements in a policy. After policy application, controls become project-specific work items that can receive declarations, reviews, indicators, evidence, and status changes.

Use the generated Governance Service API reference for exact request and response models for the release you are integrating with.
