Programmatically create buildspecifications in LabVIEW 2013

I'm trying to build a project programmatically. The "Add Files to Project" example VI is a really good start but I'm trying to take it further. However, I'm struggling! I'd like to add a build specification under "Build Specifications", akin to right-clicking on "Build Specifications" and selecting "New">"Application (EXE)", and configuring it appropriately. I'am using tag  prorperty node mechanism to set all the things I need. But when adding TopLevel source file I have a problem. When creating build script by hand. and set the Toplevel source file there is an extra source introcduced but i have no clue where it comes from. In the XML file it looks likes this. The Red Part is introduced when adding toplevel VI.

 

        <Item Name="Build Specifications" Type="Build">
            <Item Name="My Application" Type="EXE">
                <Property Name="App_serverConfig.httpPort" Type="Int">8002</Property>
                <Property Name="Bld_autoIncrement" Type="Bool">true</Property>
                <Property Name="Bld_buildSpecDescription" Type="Str">My Application ...</Property>
                <Property Name="Bld_buildSpecName" Type="Str">My Application</Property>

                .....

                .....

                <Property Name="Source[0].itemID" Type="Str">{7CF5614F-E89B-470F-A9B5-75E155180217}</Property>
                <Property Name="Source[0].type" Type="Str">Container</Property>

                <Property Name="Source[1].destinationIndex" Type="Int">0</Property>
                <Property Name="Source[1].itemID" Type="Ref">/My Computer/#_Startup.vi</Property>
                <Property Name="Source[1].sourceInclusion" Type="Str">TopLevel</Property>
                <Property Name="Source[1].type" Type="Str">VI</Property>
                .....

                .....

 

Can anyone tell me which itemID from project this is.

 

 

Thanks
