How did you find your School ID number

@ABUCKY0 I was able to find mine by logging into SchoolCafe, pulling up the calendar view and then opening the browser inspector (in my case in Safari) and looking in Storage -> Session Storage -> www.schoolcafe.com and at the key "students". The value is a json object that as the key "SchoolID" and a value like: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

The value for "ServingLine" was different for me that what's hardcoded. You can see it in the web calendar view, mine defaults to "Regular" but I just use "All Lines" generically.
