-#### Why is `@id` currently empty?
+#### What are the returned `@id`s?
 
-An empty `@id` resolves the entity's URI to be the current document base (i.e.
-URL). While this is not particularly true, as requesting the creation
-transaction of an entity results in much more than just the entity, this is the
-implementation for now. In the future, we're planning to replace JSON-LD's URI
-linking structure with [IPLD](https://github.com/ipld/specs).
+The returned `@id`s denote the persisted ID of the entities on BigchainDB as a
+relative URI to the current document base (i.e. the route URL, or
+`/manifestations` in this case). For now, these point to the `CREATE`
+transaction for the entity; in the future, they will be changing to be an asset
+ID instead.
+
+In the case of the returned Work and Copyright, their `@id`s are slightly
+inconvenient to process as they live under a different base URL (`/works` and
+`/rights`, respectively). You should strip away the leading paths to use just
+the persisted IDs of these entities.
+
+Note that in the future, we also plan to replace the JSON-LD linking structure
+with [IPLD](https://github.com/ipld/specs).
