The SEC CIK (Central Index Key) is an identifier assigned by the Securities and Exchange Commission to all public companies. To find the CIK for any public company, search for the company name at https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/cik.htm. The CIK code is listed directly on the search results page, to the left of the company name. Any leading zeros may be removed from this number. For example, the search results for a query of "microsoft" returns two entries. The relevant entry is listed as "MICROSOFT CORP" and has a CIK of 789019 (with 4 leading zeros removed).
