You can get global Global node IDs of help you query about specific Scope objects (users, groups, scenarios, etc.) via the Scope GraphQL API.
You can get global node IDs from the REST API and/or webhooks, and then use them in GraphQL operations.Note: In
In REST, the global node ID field is named node_id
, and in webhooks, the global node ID field is named resource_id
. In GraphQL, it's an id
field on the node

When building integrations that use either the REST API or the GraphQL API, it's best practice to persist the global node ID so you can easily reference objects across API versions. For more information on handling the transition between REST and GraphQL, see "Migrating from REST to GraphQL."
