How can we retrieve Module IDs & Line item IDs?

Hello,
Is there a way we can retrieve the module IDs & line item IDs? It'd be really helpful in understanding the MAPS report instead of having to copy paste & check the id for each line item.

Thanks!

I learnt something new today looking into this. I was originally going to respond with 'use REST API with Postman or equivalent' but found a post from @alexpavel where you can just drop a URL in your browser (assuming you're already authenticated) and that's it (nice one Alex, saves me time too).

Hey @luke_e ,
Thanks for sharing. That's pretty neat! :)

Yes, would be nice if we can also get the line item ids a similar way.

Hi @devrathahuja I think @AjayM has called it out, but you should be able to get the line items using the URL.

If done correctly, you'll get an output that looks like the below, repeated for each line item. The 'id' field is the one you'd be after with the 'moduleID' unsurprisingly being the id for the module, but you'd need to transform this a bit in excel to make it look more presentable.

As you can probably tell, it contains the various attributes relating to a line item which maps back to the.. MAPS report.
