This PCDOE practice question tests your understanding of bootstrapping a google cloud organization for devops. Match the stated requirement to the specific cloud service, access model, or configuration option — many options are valid in isolation but not for this scenario. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A DevOps team is bootstrapping a Google Cloud organization. They have created a folder for a business unit and want to prevent users from moving projects out of that folder to other folders. Which organization policy constraint should they apply?
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedResourceRestrictions
Why wrong: This constraint does not exist.
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedPolicyMemberDomains
Why wrong: This restricts domain membership.
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedProjectParent
Why wrong: This restricts project creation, not moving.
constraints/resourcemanager.disableProjectMove
This prevents projects from being moved.
Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
constraints/resourcemanager.disableProjectMove
Option D is correct because the `constraints/resourcemanager.disableProjectMove` organization policy constraint explicitly prevents users from moving projects out of a specified folder or organization. When applied at the folder level, this constraint blocks any move operation that would relocate a project to a different parent, ensuring projects remain within the designated business unit folder.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Answer analysis
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedResourceRestrictions
Why it's wrong here
This constraint does not exist.
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedPolicyMemberDomains
Why it's wrong here
This restricts domain membership.
constraints/resourcemanager.allowedProjectParent
Why it's wrong here
This restricts project creation, not moving.
constraints/resourcemanager.disableProjectMove
Why this is correct
This prevents projects from being moved.

Common exam traps
Google Cloud often tests the misconception that `allowedProjectParent` is a real constraint, but Google Cloud uses `disableProjectMove` instead, and candidates may confuse it with similar-sounding but unrelated constraints like `allowedPolicyMemberDomains`.
Detailed technical explanation
Under the hood, the `disableProjectMove` constraint works by intercepting the `resourcemanager.projects.move` API call and denying it if the target parent is outside the allowed hierarchy. This constraint can be applied at the organization, folder, or project level, and when set at a folder, it prevents projects from being moved out of that folder to any other folder or organization. In real-world scenarios, this is critical for maintaining compliance boundaries, such as keeping PCI-DSS workloads within a specific folder hierarchy.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
Real-world example
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
