Where to get values

Various fields need id values such as CategoryId, CustomQuestion Ids, CategoryAwardId, and SpecialAwardIds. You can get these values from our API. Check out API Get Info

You can also add FixedProjectId, this allows you to upload the project Id you want to be used for your uploaded project.
