How to Find your User ID on Discord

Discord, a messaging and communication platform, has a distinctive feature that enables multiple users to have identical usernames. However, each user is distinguished by a four-digit numeric code attached to the end of their username. For instance, users with the same username, like “RemoteTools,” can be differentiated from each other by a unique identifier, such as “RemoteTools#0041” and “RemoteTools#0658.”

How to Find your User ID on Discord In Discord, each user has a unique numerical string called User ID. Discord uses this ID to record user activities for future reference and processing. Likewise, messages, channels, and servers also have unique IDs in Discord.

Developers primarily use these IDs to refer to specific items in a Discord server or the server itself. However, non-developers may also need to find these IDs in certain situations. Fortunately, finding IDs in Discord, including User ID, is relatively simple if you enable Developer mode.

In this article, we will guide you on how to find User ID, message ID, and server ID in Discord on both desktop and mobile devices.

How to Find your Discord User ID

To find your User ID in Discord, you must first enable Developer mode. Once enabled, you can right-click or tap your name and select Copy ID. Below are the steps to enable Developer mode and find your User ID in detail:

Desktop:

Open Discord and sign in to your account.
Navigate to the Discord settings by clicking the gear icon next to your username.
Scroll down to the “Appearance” section and toggle on the “Developer Mode” option.
Close the settings window and return to the main Discord interface.
Find your username in the user list or chat.
Right-click on your username to open the options menu.
Select “Copy ID” to copy your User ID to the clipboard.

Once you have followed the steps to enable Developer mode and copied your User ID, it is now saved to your clipboard and can be pasted wherever you need it, such as in a support ticket or for identification purposes.

To find another user’s ID in a Discord server, you can click on the “Users” icon in the upper-right corner of the server interface. This will bring up a list of all the users currently in the server.

To find your own User ID in a Discord server, follow these steps:

Click on the “Users” icon in the upper-right corner of the server interface.
Locate your username in the list of users and right-click on it.
Select “Copy ID” from the options that appear.

If you cannot find your username in the list of users in a Discord server, you can alternatively locate yourself in a chat within the server and copy your User ID from there. To do this, follow these steps:

Open a chat in the Discord server where you are a member.
Locate your username in the chat.
Right-click on your username and select “Copy ID” from the options that appear.

Your User ID will then be copied to the clipboard and ready to be pasted wherever you need it.

Your User ID will then be visible in the chat for anyone who has permission to view it.

Open the Discord app on your mobile device and sign in to your account.
Tap on the three horizontal lines in the upper-left corner of the screen to open the main menu.
Scroll down and tap on “User Settings.”
In the User Settings menu, scroll down to “Behavior” and tap on it.
