So first of all you need to read that file.

import csv
with open('yourfilename.csv', mode ='r') as file:
csvFile = csv.reader(file)

Taken from here

Next you would want to split each column to a list, so that you can scrape multiple ids

idList = []
for line in csvFile: # loop each line
  for columns in line: # loop each column
    for element in columns.split(' '): # loop each element
      idList.append(element)

print(idList)
