Struggling to find your unique player ID, or wondering what it’s for? We’ve got you covered! Continue reading below to find out what a player ID is and how you can find yours, or the IDs of any of your friends.

What is a player ID?

A player ID serves as a form of identification that’s specific to your account and its information—because no one else can have the same player ID as you, it’s a great way to differentiate yourself from other players. There are also item IDs, group IDs, and experience IDs that all serve a similar purpose. These IDs are basically a numerical username that exist in the background of your account.

How do I find my player ID?

PC

On the Roblox website, head to your profile. Do this by clicking on the three lines in the top left hand corner, and then selecting the icon of your Roblox character. From your profile, locate the address bar above the actual website’s window—it should say something similar to https://www.roblox.com/users/123456789/profile.

The nine digit number that’s inserted before /profile is your unique player ID.

Mobile

Unfortunately, there’s no way to obtain your player ID from the Roblox app. Instead, you’ll need to access the Roblox website on your mobile device and follow the steps described above.

Xbox

Similar to mobile, there is no way to obtain your player ID from the Xbox Roblox app. Instead, you will either need to use a computer or mobile device to log into Roblox and follow the steps above.

What do I do with my player ID?

If you’re worried about a friend having difficulty finding your account through the standard friend search, you can send them your player ID and have them enter it into their address bar by using the template https://www.roblox.com/users/________/profile. They can replace the underscores in this url with your player ID to be instantly transported to your profile.
