Roblox ID: where to find User ID and Asset ID and how they differ

In Roblox, user ID and resource ID refer to different entities. Before copying a number, check which ID is needed.

Roblox · Roblox Corporation

How to find User ID

Open your Roblox profile page. In an address like https://www.roblox.com/users/1234567/profile, the number 1234567 is User ID; This is an example of the link structure, not your account ID. Copy the number from the actually open profile. Your username and display name do not replace your numeric ID. User ID identifies an account and is not a password or activation code.

Where to get the Asset ID of your resource

The official instructions suggest opening Creations in the Creator Dashboard, then Development Items, selecting the resource type and finding the required element. Beside its thumbnail, open the menu with three dots and select Copy Asset ID. First check the title and category of the item: one project can contain images, sound and other assets. Don't copy a random number from an adjacent card.

What does rbxassetid:// mean?

Roblox resources have unique IDs, and a common link format is rbxassetid:// with the resource number. A specific object property must take the corresponding resource type: image, model and sound do not become interchangeable from the same URI format. Player.UserId refers to the user. Keep the type and purpose label next to the ID, especially when working with multiple projects.

Why the correct ID may not load

A matching number does not guarantee access: permissions, type and moderation status of the resource are taken into account. According to the official documentation, imported resources are private by default; There are special rules for audio and video. Therefore, if there is an error, first check the object itself and the rights to use it in the project. The set of “working IDs” from the old selection does not confirm current availability. There are enough fields for your table: type, name, ID, project and permission.
