> The api is using inconsistent values to retrieve objects. Sometimes it will require using an Id to retrieve an object, sometimes it will require passing a string value to retrieve the object. This especially gets confusing since many of the ids only require a single string to create them anyways. 
> Since the api is suppose to be Id centric, retrieval of all objects should be done using ids.
> Examples using strings instead of ids:
> - ContentRegistry with categories
> - Category with ManagedContent
