ID numbers are a way for NATS to easily identify and organize sites, members/affiliates, and programs. You can find all necessary ID numbers through URL addresses in NATS.
Finding a Site ID Number
In the Sites Admin, each site is listed on a line with icons. Mouse
over any of these icons to see its URL in your Web browser's status; the
number in the URL is the site's ID number.
For example:
view=partners&site[id]=1
The end of the URL (site[id]=1) specifies that the number in question is a Site ID, and specifies that it is the first site in your NATS install.
Finding a Member ID Number
To find a Member ID number, open the Members Admin and scroll down to your list of members. Next to the Username and Password category will be a column marked ID. In this column you can easily find a list of Member ID numbers that correspond to their respective usernames.
Finding an Affiliate ID Number
To find an Affiliate ID number, go to the Affiliates Admin. Here, each user is listed on a line with icons. To get an Affiliate ID number, click on the Affiliate Overview icon. Once you have opened the Affiliate Overview page, the Affiliate's user ID will be in the current page's URL.
For example:
view=affiliate_overview&userid=7
The end of the URL (userid=7) specifies the particular user's ID number (in this case, number 7).
In the Members Admin or Affiliates Admin, each user is listed
on a line with icons. Mouse over any of these icons to see its URL in
your Web browser's status; the number in the URL is the user's ID
number.
Finding a Program ID Number
In the Programs Admin, each program is listed on a line with icons.
Mouse over any of these icons to its URL in your Web browser's status
bar; the number in the URL is the program's ID number.
For example:
view=edit&program[id]=7
The end of the URL (program[id]=7) specifies the program's ID number (in this case, number 7)
