Visiting this page again in 2022, create project is almost same, with some minor updates. Support for older networks has been deprecated, since the networks are now shut down. For more details about the ethereum testnet, you can refer to https://blog.ethereum.org/2022/06/21/testnet-deprecation

Another update which has been introduced in version 4.0 of gateway backend is the manner in which authentication works. Previously, authentication token was part of header. This posed difficulty in integrating gateway in any existing web3 library. To cater to that we have now allowed users to pass user token as API params. When creating a project, an endpoint is provided to users which can be directly used as HTTP provider in web3 libraries. Thus improving the support for web3 libraries.
