List GUID

• Access the list with your browser
• Go to Settings->List Settings
• Copy the URL from your browser address line into a text editor. It should look something like this: http://something.com/_layouts/listedit.aspx?List=%7BB2FD569F%2D89B3%2D4150%2DA9BA%2D1D7F5F9437AA%7D
• Delete everything upto (and including) List=
• Replace %7B with {
• Replace %7D with }
• Replace %2D with -
• In the above example, the GUID would be {B2FD569F-89B3-4150-A9BA-1D7F5F9437AA}

View GUID

• Access the list with your browser
• Go to Settings->List Settings
• Copy the URL from your browser address line into a text editor. It should look something like this: http://something.com/_layouts/ViewEdit.aspx?List=%7BB2FD569F%2D89B3%2D4150%2DA9BA%2D1D7F5F9437AA%7D&View=%7B6E1DB03C%2D9083%2D45FD%2D9487%2DDCF420E4F245%7D&Source=%252Foperations%252Fskutracker%252F%255Flayouts%252Flistedit%252Easpx%253FList%253D%25257BB2FD569F%25252D89B3%25252D4150%25252DA9BA%25252D1D7F5F9437AA%25257D
