The Workiva connector's commands use IDs to identify files and items to interact with in the Workiva Platform, such as queries, tables, and spreadsheets.
Workiva files and items
The ID of a file and item in the Workiva Platform usually appears in its URL, which you can view in your browser's address bar.
