+# Reusing an Existing Azure AI Foundry Project
+To configure your environment to use an existing Azure AI Foundry Project, follow these steps:
+---
+### 1. Go to Azure Portal
+Go to https://portal.azure.com
+
+### 2. Search for Azure AI Foundry
+In the search bar at the top, type "Azure AI Foundry" and click on it. Then select the Foundry service instance where your project exists.
+
+![alt text](../docs/images/re_use_foundry_project/azure_ai_foundry_list.png)
+
+### 3. Navigate to Projects under Resource Management
+On the left sidebar of the Foundry service blade:
+
+- Expand the Resource Management section
+- Click on Projects (this refers to the active Foundry project tied to the service)
+
+### 4. Click on the Project
+From the Projects view: Click on the project name to open its details
+
+    Note: You will see only one project listed here, as each Foundry service maps to a single project in this accelerator
+
+![alt text](../docs/images/re_use_foundry_project/navigate_to_projects.png)
+
+### 5. Copy Resource ID
+In the left-hand menu of the project blade: 
+
+- Click on Properties under Resource Management
+- Locate the Resource ID field
+- Click on the copy icon next to the Resource ID value
+
+![alt text](../docs/images/re_use_foundry_project/project_resource_id.png)
+
+### 6. Set the Foundry Project Resource ID in Your Environment
+Run the following command in your terminal
+```bash
+azd env set AZURE_EXISTING_AI_PROJECT_RESOURCE_ID '<Existing AI Project Resource ID>'
+```
+Replace `<Existing AI Project Resource ID>` with the value obtained from Step 5.
+
+### 7. Continue Deployment
+Proceed with the next steps in the [deployment guide](/documents/DeploymentGuide.md#deployment-options--steps).
