Portal ID requested when sending a SOAP API to sandbox

Here is the SOAP login envelope I am stuck on:

<Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
    <Header>
        <LoginScopeHeader xmlns="urn:partner.soap.sforce.com">
            <organizationId>00DJ0000003L9lt</organizationId>
            <portalId>[string?]</portalId>
    

Where do I find our Portal ID?

To find the customer portal ID Go to Setup > Customer Portal > Setting then on Portal detial section you can find Portal Id.

We don't have Customer Portal set up. I am just trying to use a SOAP Call to call Salesforce sandbox from our website.

Well in that case you need to setup a customer portal first to get the portal Id.

It seems like with the advent of Communities, the portalId node is no longer needed to gain receive a session token via the SOAP API.

Create a file called authrequest.xml and set the organizationId, username and password.
