# Finding the session ID

When you have an issue with Lightico, our Support team may ask you to provide session ID examples for the reported issue.

## What is a Session ID?

A session ID is the unique identifier for any secure session created by Lightico using either Lightico stand alone or API applications. The session ID has a GUID format and is a large number that looks like this: 30dd879c-ee2f-11db-8314-0800200c9a66
