.. admonition:: Temporary limitation for v2.0 projects
Due to an underlying architecture change, it is currently not possible to change regions of already created ``v2.0`` projects.
**Support for this will be added in the very near future.**
In the meanwhile, as a workaround, you can "move" your project to a new region by creating a new Hasura project
in the region you wish and connect it with your database with the same Hasura metadata as in the previous project.
**Step 1: Export metadata from existing project**
See :ref:`exporting metadata <exporting_metadata>` to get a copy of the current Hasura metadata
on your project.
Do ensure no further changes are made to the Hasura metadata post this.
**Step 2: Create a v2.0 Cloud project in your region**
See ``Step 1`` of :ref:`creating projects <create_project>` to create a new Hasura Cloud ``v2.0``
project in the region you wish.
**Step 3: Connect your database with the same name to the new project**
See ``Step 2`` of :ref:`creating projects <create_project>` to connect your existing database to
the new project. Please ensure you set the same database name as in the current project.
**Step 4: Apply the exported metadata to the new project**
See :ref:`applying metadata <applying_metadata>` to apply the earlier exported metadata to the new
project.
Your GraphQL API should now be regenerated as in the earlier project.
