# Retrieving Devices or Access Control Systems Connected Through a Connect Webview
When your app user completes a [Connect Webview](/latest/core-concepts/connect-webviews.md) authorization flow successfully, the resulting [`connected_account.connected` event](https://docs.seam.co/latest/api/events/) includes a `connected_account_id`. Also, once the connection is successful, the [`connect_webview` object](https://docs.seam.co/latest/api/connect_webviews/) includes the `connected_account_id`.
The first step in controlling connected devices or a connected ACS is to retrieve the newly-connected set of devices or ACS.
***
## Retrieve Connected Devices
Use this `connected_account_id` in a [List Devices](https://docs.seam.co/latest/api/devices/list) command to retrieve the devices that your user has just connected to Seam.
{% hint style="info" %}
If you set `wait_for_device_creation` to `false` when [creating the Connect Webview](https://docs.seam.co/latest/core-concepts/connect-webviews/pages/z175ORX3nDmSL90MmIaG#id-1.-create-a-connect-webview), you should wait for the [`connected_account.completed_first_sync` event](https://docs.seam.co/latest/api/events/) before retrieving the user's devices. This event indicates that Seam has finished the first sync of the connected account and the devices are now available.
