JumpCloud, like many other directories, gives each object a specific or unique identifier. These objectIDs are associated with almost every item that is configurable within the platform. You may need these objectIDs if you\u2019re troubleshooting an issue, writing custom scripts, calling the API, or integrating third party apps with the JumpCloud Platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this article we\u2019ll cover the most common Object IDs and how to get them through the Admin Portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also use the JumpCloud API and JumpCloud PowerShell Module<\/a> to retrieve objectIDs. See Retrieve Object IDs from the API<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
This section will cover how to locate the ObjectIDs of the most common JumpCloud objects such as Users, User Groups, Devices, Device Groups, Policies, ApplicationIDs, and more through the GUI via the Admin Portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The LDAP UID is not the same as this number. The LDAP is the user\u2019s username<\/strong>. In the previous example, the LDAP UID is bsmith<\/strong>. The hexadecimal UserID is used primarily in the API, custom scripting, and other 3rd party integrations.<\/p>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
In JumpCloud, devices may also be called systems<\/em>. In the API, the device\u2019s unique identifier is called the SystemId<\/em>. The SystemId is also found within the Agent configuration file on the targeted device as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re looking to pull the objectIDs of other items within the JumpCloud platform, you can perform the same or similar methods listed above. The URL should contain the objectID when the object is pulled up in the Admin Portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some objects may or may not be visible within the Admin Portal or GUI, thus you\u2019ll need to reference the following article to pull this information via the API or via PowerShell: Retrieving IDs for Objects within the JumpCloud API<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
