How to return a group ID from an ArcGIS.com group

NelsonDe_Miranda — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:59:44 GMT

When using arcgis.com you can search for groups ie.

http://www.arcgis.com/home/group.html?owner=tcostain&title=Central%20Eastern%20ESRI%20Commercial%20User%20Group%20%28Philadelphia%29

However, to query this group I would like to use its "group id"

How can I retrieve this?

Thanks,

Mystery solved.

Use a browser debugger ie. Firebug

It is possible accessing the site ArcGIS Online Group ID at http://www.esri.com/public-maps-gallery/group-id-tool/index.html.

Have a good work!

In case someone else have this same issue again I just built a simple interface (source code available on Github) to get this job done:
