# Context

The ID of the question context that you want to use for this question.

The context specifies additional information to limit the scope of the question. In Fact Bank the context is a specific entity used in disambiguation, for example, you might set a context to specify that a user is asking questions about Cambridge UK, rather than Cambridge Massachusetts or Ontario. For Answer Bank or Passage Extractor, the context is a string that could, for example, come from a previous question.

You create a context by using the ManageResources action. You can retrieve the IDs of existing conversation sessions by sending the GetResources action with Type set to `context`. For more information, refer to the Answer Server Administration Guide.
