How to Checkout file to Default ChangeList?

Here is my code I want to check out file to default changelist.

But I don't know my default changlist ID. How can I get it?

enter image description here 

string command = "-c";
string f = filePath;

cmd = new P4Command(p4, "add", true, command, changelist.Id.ToString(), "-f", f);
rslt = cmd.Run();

f = filePath.Replace("@", "%40");

cmd = new P4Command(p4, "edit", true, command, changelist.Id.ToString(), f);
rslt = cmd.Run();

cmd = new P4Command(p4, "reopen", true, command, changelist.Id.ToString(), f);
rslt = cmd.Run();

No need to overcomplicate things -- it's called the "default" because it's literally the default when you don't specify a changelist. The "default changelist" isn't really a changelist; it's just a collection of files open on your client that don't belong to a numbered changelist yet.

C:\Perforce\test>p4 edit foo
//stream/main/foo#4 - opened for edit

C:\Perforce\test>p4 opened
//stream/main/foo#4 - edit default change (text)

I think in terms of your code this is:

cmd = new P4Command(p4, "edit", true, f);
rslt = cmd.Run();

Just leave off the "-c" (which stands for "changelist") and the changelist number.

If you need to move a file out of a numbered change and into the default change you can use the reopen command as described in p4 help reopen:

    reopen -- Change the filetype of an open file or move it to
              another changelist

    p4 reopen [-c changelist#] [-t filetype] file ...

        ...

        The target changelist must exist; you cannot create a changelist by
        reopening a file. To move a file to the default changelist, use
        'p4 reopen -c default'.

I think I found answer. dont input changeId , just input keyword : "default" like this.

string command = "-c";
cmd = new P4Command(p4, "add", true, command, "default", "-f", f);
cmd = new P4Command(p4, "edit", true, command, "default", f);
cmd = new P4Command(p4, "reopen", true, command, "default", f);
