Hey Guys,
I can't find it, how you can get fleet_id to use ESI for fleets?

The fleet id can only be got from in-game.

The fleet boss needs to open the hamburger menu in the fleet window and select the copy fleet link button (may not be named exactly this).

This returns a full url which you will need to manipulate a little bit to get just the id from it.

Just for reference on why:

It's to do with how the fleet stuff is currently implemented. The fleet server knows who is in a specific fleet. And a client knows which fleet it's in.

But there's no way to query the fleet server to know what fleet person X is in.

Woo! CSM XI!
