How can i get data-id?

=When I read docs, I saw the Delete Data statement in RestAPI, which requires the uuid of the data. But I haven't found a way to get or put the uuid of the data in add and cognify.

hey <@878527130080780308> thanks for your question UUIDs are automatically generated using a hash of the file content combined with your user ID when adding data to cognee.

the list_data operation is a primary tool for getting UUIDs:
datasets = await list_data()
data_items = await list_data(dataset_id="your-dataset-id")

here the list_data function returns both dataset ids and data item ids each data item includes its UUID in the Data id field .

let us know if this helps.

Btw what's your specific use case for tracking documents?
