Locating the ID of an External Storage

Via the Web App

The External Storage ID is not currently displayed in the Flywheel Web App. Use the new (BETA) CLI to locate the External Storage ID instead.

Via the New (BETA) CLI

To locate the External Storage ID, you can use the admin storage list command to list all the existing External Storage registrations on the site:

1
fw-beta admin storage list

This output is paginated, and only the 20 most recent External Storages will returned by default. To view the next "page" of External Storages, take the ID of the last storage in the list, then run the following command:

1
fw-beta admin storage list --after-id <id>

Where <id> is replaced with the ID of the last External Storage in the list.

Repeat this process to continue stepping through each "page" of External Storages.

Tip

There are additional options for filtering, sorting, and changing the length of the list to help locate a particular External Storage registration. These options can be listed using the following command:

1
fw-beta admin storage list -h

For more information, see the new CLI documentation for admin storage list.
