How to find your Metricool user ID

Your Metricool user ID is the number after userId in the app browser URL. API requests use it together with your brand ID and access token.

Find your user ID in the app URL

Open Metricool in a browser, open any brand, and copy the number after userId in the address bar.

  1. Sign in to Metricool in a web browser.

  2. Open a brand in your account so the address bar includes brand and account parameters.

  3. In the browser address bar, find the userId parameter and copy the number after it.

Example URL:

https://app.metricool.com/evolution/web?blogId=00000&userId=0000000

In that example, 0000000 is the user ID for the account. The number after blogId identifies the brand, not the user.

API documentation describes userId as the user identifier of your Metricool account. API calls also require a separate brand ID (blogId) and API access token.

What the user ID is not

Do not confuse your user ID with these other API identifiers:

  • Brand ID (blogId): The number after blogId in the same app URL. It identifies the brand you currently have open.

  • API access token: A separate authorization code available from Account Settings > API on Advanced and Custom plans. It is not the same as your numeric user ID.

For setup that uses userId, blogId, and the access token together, see Common questions and errors when using the API.
