How do I trigger a new build for a specific site?

First, use the `list_build_hooks` tool to find the appropriate hook for your site. Then, use the `trigger_site_build` tool with the site ID and build hook ID to start the deployment.

Can I see the submissions for my contact forms?

Yes! Use the `list_form_submissions` tool with the Site ID. It will retrieve the most recent data submitted through any Netlify Form on that site.

How do I find my Site ID?

Use the `list_sites` tool. It will return a comprehensive list of all your sites along with their unique IDs, URLs, and current statuses.
