There are several ways you can find the ID of a community space or space group:

- API v1

- Inspect tool

- Zapier

## **API v1**

You can retrieve information about a set of spaces and space groups in your community, including their IDs, using [**Circle API**](/p/sso-and-integrations/api).

To achieve this using API requests, go to our [**API documentation**](https://api-v1.circle.so/). In the left sidebar, click [**Spaces**](https://api-v1.circle.so/#516404aa-afbb-4860-bf89-c4310d591ec0) or [**Space Group**](https://api-v1.circle.so/#cf958cc4-c8db-479b-a318-ef102ee70b38) and select  **Index**. Use the  **GET**  method to retrieve this information.

## **Inspect tool**

You can find this information directly in your browser using the inspect tool.

To find the unique ID using the Chrome browser:

1. Click the community name or logo (or the dropdown icon next to it) in the top-left corner and select  **Back to community**.

2. In the community sidebar, right-click on the space or space group and select **Inspect**.

3. The  **Elements**  panel shows the highlighted HTML code for the selected element.

4. In the highlighted code, find the  **data-id,**  which is your space's ID. In the following example, you can see the highlighted data-id for the  **Start Here**  space.

## Zapier

You can also get this information from automation platforms like Zapier, where Circle is available. When you are adding members to a space or space group in Zapier, click the dropdown menu for the  **Space**  or  **Space group**  field to view the unique IDs.
