# How to get the SharePoint repository ID

When setting up a connection to SharePoint 2010 from [SWING PDF Converter for Notes](https://www.swingsoftware.com/pdf-converter-for-notes), a connection URL must be used in the following format:&#x20;

`http://<hostname>/_vti_bin/cmis/rest/<repository-id>/getRepositoryInfo`

The  in the above URL is the ID for the SharePoint list or document library you're trying to access.

One of the ways to get this ID is to open your site in SharePoint Designer, navigate to "Lists and Libraries", and select the one you're trying to access.

The resulting page will contain a value for "List ID" that looks similar to {A200A400-A4D5-48F2-81AE-B25ADF8DB0CF}.

The ID that you find in the curly braces is the value you should use for the part of the URL.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.swingsoftware.com/pdf-converter-for-notes/tips-miscellaneous/how-to-get-the-sharepoint-repository-id.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
