which ID of differentially expressed genes from the result page of the GEO2R is used to the construction of the Protein-Protein interaction network in the STRING database?

I performed a differential expression analysis by GEO2R and Now, I want to enter a list of differentially expressed genes to STRING database and construct a PPI network. STRING database accepts protein names as input. Can I use any ID between different IDs in the result page of GEO2R ( ID SPOT_ID, CONTROL_TYPE, REFSEQ, GB_ACC, GENE_SYMBOL, GENE_NAME, UNIGENE_ID, ENSEMBL_ID, ACCESSION_STRING, CYTOBAND DESCRIPTION, and GO_ID) if yes which one? Or I should select one of them and then convert to another format by converter tools?

gene
