Abstract	The first Superconducting Insertion devices were designed, fabricated and installed on electron storage rings more than 25 years ago for generation of synchrotron radiation. For these years wide experience of manufacturing and use of such superconducting insertion devices as superconducting wave length shifters, multipolar wigglers and undulators is accumulated. Review of various types of Superconducting Insertion Devices for Light Sources is given in the report. Their basic characteristics as SR sources are discussed.
