I know this is probably a silly question but I just want to learn
What is normally referred to as your your jabber id or JID is the name you used to login to your IM client, often it is the same as your email address.
like - timmy@example.com, johnny@gmail.com
Your true full JID would be the examples i listed above plus your resource identifier appended to the end of the name that normally describes what or where the connection is being made from…
timmy@example.com/work
timmy@example.com/home
you normally dont type the full JID into the client, as most of them will just pick one for you (spark uses ‘‘spark’’) but normally you can override the default pick yourself.
So if you can login to your client, then you already know your JID
