Cannot find my GEDMatch ID number

Unsure if this is where to ask about this but I cannot come up with a GEDmatch ID number. I went to GED Match and uploaded my DNA raw files from Ancestry.  This is the kit number it gave me WE4102891. From what I read I should have gotten something that starts with an "A" due to my data coming from Ancestry. Anyways, when I go to WikiTree and try to enter this number as my GEDmatch, and I get this message "The ancestry ID may only contain letters, digits and underscores. I have no idea what this number is supposed to be. Thank you for your time. Timothy Ashcraft

If you have uploaded your DNA test from a DNA test site to Gedmatch, on the left side of the home Gedmatch page, you should see a section titled DNA Resources. Your Gedmatch number should be there.

It gave me kit #  WE4102891, but when I enter that in WikiTree I get the error message " The ancestry ID may only contain letters, digits and underscores.
You can retry entering it but make sure not to put ANY spaces or the # just enter WE4102891.
I have tried that several times and I get the same error message each time. I am at a loss as to what to do.
I got it to go through.  Thanks for the help.
