rewrite url for articles with htaccess

Question

I've had a look through several other questions to see if i could get this working but have had no success at all at the moment so i'm hoping someone can help.

This is the url i currently have,

/?action=viewArticle&articleId=1

Ideally i'd like to only show the article ID if possible.

Appreciate any help.

Maybe something like this:

RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)/*$ index.php?action=viewArticle&articleId=$1 [L]
