Hi,
I've set up a checklistgroup to assign "channels" to the devices collection. I'm using "deviceID" as the identifier for the row, but I'm wondering if I should be using "token" instead seen as it stays consistent even if the app is deleted then re-installed?
kind regards
Paul
Hello Paul,
token is unique app instance identifier
deviceId is unique device identifier

So if you reinstall app, appery.io will update token value
Hi Sergiy,
"deviceId is a unique device identifier". However I am finding that the phone is assigned a new deviceId if I delete then re-install the app.
This is not a problem, if this is also automatically updated in the "devices" section of the predefined collections.
So I suppose my question is, can I have confidence that the deviceId in the collection is always in sync with the current deviceId of a device?
Yes Paul,
It is impossible to have the same deviceId for different devices.
