title: How do I set up a project for gcloud datastore emulator?
body: <p>I'm trying to do some offline development with gcloud sdk where I want to build a Python Flask app presenting data queried from a datastore. The reason for doing it offline is simply that it's faster during development, it will be deployed online later using App Engine.</p>
  
  <p>First of all: The datastore emulator is running.</p>
  
  <p>However I am having trouble importing data into the datastore. I am using below from <a href="https://cloud.google.com/datastore/docs/tools/emulator-export-import" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> to try and import (with my values).</p>
  
  <pre><code>curl -X POST localhost:8081/v1/projects/[PROJECT_ID]:import \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"input_url":"[ENTITY_EXPORT_FILES]"}'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem I am having is that it just returns </p>
  
  <p><code>NOT FOUND</code></p>
  
  <p>I think I know what it is but not how to solve it: I don't have a project defined in my offline environment. So I wonder, how do I set up a project in my "offline cloud SDK environment"?</p>
