instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SimpleTableVC" where is this identifier set in Interface Builder?

Full CODE: UINavigationController *navigationController = (UINavigationController *)[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"SimpleTableVC"];

This code works properly, I do not know where the @"SimpleTableVC" string is being set in Interface Builder, I have looked at the Navigation Controllers in IB I have only found they are linked to the custom SelectMajorTableViewController subclass I have created. Where is this being set in IB?

The Storyboard ID is set in the Identity section of the Identity Inspector. You need to make sure you have clicked on the actual navigation controller itself and not one of the scenes it controls.

Thank You!!! I had to show the Identity section because it was hidden by default!
