### {% linkable_title Correctly specifying the Site ID %}
For environments where there are multiple sites setup on the controller, or the default site is not being used you can use the `site_id` parameter to specify which site you would like to target.
Please note that the value that is to be specificed here is not the name of the site as you would see it in controller interface, but a site ID value assigned from the software itself.
To obtain this value for your configuration file, you can take it from the URL of your browser when on the controller webpage.
For example, this is what would be seen in the URL bar when inside the dashboard page of a site:
* https://127.0.0.1:8443/manage/s/ceb1m27d/dashboard
And your `site_id` value would be ceb1m27d.
