Click on **Detailed help** to get your Workspace RID from your nominal account.

Ways of connecting to your workspace:

1. Create a text file that contains your Workspace RID.
2. Wire a string containing your Workspace RID directly.
3. For development, wire an empty string. When an empty string is wired, the API will look for a `.workspace` file in your application’s directory.

NOTE: Besure to exclude Workspace RIDs (and Workspace RID files) from source code control.
