If you change the `id` of the root element, be sure to update it [server-side](/v2/installation/server-side-setup#root-template) as well.

## Script Element for Page Data

By default, Inertia stores the initial page data in a `data-page` attribute on the root element. You may configure Inertia to use a `<script type="application/json">` element instead, which is slightly faster and easier to inspect in your browser's dev tools.

```js
createInertiaApp({
// ...
defaults: {
future: {
useScriptElementForInitialPage: true,
},
},
})
```

Be sure to also update your [SSR entry point](/v2/advanced/server-side-rendering#add-server-entry-point) if you're using server-side rendering. Laravel users should also set the `inertia.use_script_element_for_initial_page` config value to `true` so the `@inertia` Blade directive outputs a script element.
