## IDs
::: info
pronouns.cc is [planning a transition](https://codeberg.org/pronounscc/pronouns.cc/issues/89)
to [Snowflake IDs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snowflake_ID).
The information below pertains to the current ID format.
:::
### Snowflake IDs
The API uses [xid](https://github.com/rs/xid) for unique IDs. These are always serialized as strings.
For [multiple reasons](https://codeberg.org/pronounscc/pronouns.cc/issues/89),
pronouns.cc is transitioning to using snowflakes for unique IDs. These will become the default in the next API version,
but are already returned as `id_new` in the relevant objects (users, members, and flags).
### xids
[xid](https://github.com/rs/xid) is the previous unique ID format. These are always serialized as strings.
Although xids have timestamp information embedded in them, this is non-trivial to extract.
xids are unique across _all_ resources, they are never shared (for example, a user and a member cannot share the same ID).
### prns.cc IDs
Users and members also have an additional ID type, `sid`.
These are randomly generated 5 or 6 letter strings, and are used for the prns.cc URL shortener.
They can be rerolled once per hour.
**These can change at any time**, as short IDs can be rerolled once per hour.
