[Kitsumi02]

Depends on the load order of the mod. Wherever it is on your list basically. You can find out the hard way by doing the code starting from 001 and working your way up. Mod launchers like mod organizer 2 or vortex will also tell you the mod load orders

[Tao314zdin]

if you want an item ID - you type:

help "ITEM NAME"

that will give you a list of matching names where you need to find what you want.

[Roccondil]

if the item comes from the base game or an esp mod file, then the first two numbers are the source's index, while the following numbers are its ID number.

If the item comes from a "light" or esl plugin, it will start with FE, the next three numbers are the source mod's index, and the last three are the item's ID numbers.

That's how to read them. Follow Tao's instruction to actually find the item ID to spawn them in through the console.
