Creating new scoping projects for each folder is the effective approach for configuring Cloud Monitoring dashboards to show metrics from a specific folder. This allows for a clear separation of metrics by folder, which is essential when you want to focus on the resources and data that belong to a particular folder within your organization.

By establishing individual scoping projects for each folder, you can curate and manage metrics specifically relevant to that folder. This structure ensures that the dashboard displays only the data pertinent to that scope, which promotes better organization and easier navigation within Cloud Monitoring.

This option facilitates enhanced clarity in our monitoring setup, as it avoids confusion from metrics that belong to different folders or projects being mixed together. Each scoping project would contain the relevant settings and configurations necessary for monitoring the resources within its designated folder, thereby optimizing the visibility of the desired metrics and making it simpler to troubleshoot and analyze those metrics.

Other methods, such as creating a single scoping project or using existing projects, may lead to a more complex and potentially cluttered view, making it difficult to isolate the metrics relevant to the specific folder of interest. Using the current app-one-prod project or existing projects might include metrics from other resources that are not related to the specific folder, diluting the focus and clarity necessary
