Source: Select the source you want

UUID: For Universally Unique Identifier, these IDs are the ones of Appconsent users . These IDs are generated differently depending on the user's platform.

note

We talked here about UUID-V4. These are randomly generated strings with a very low probability of collision.

On the Web, it is the collector that generates a UUID, it is stored in local storage or in a cookie and is quite volatile.

On Android, the UUID is created by the client from the AAID (Android Advertising ID) of the user. This AAID is a UUID specific to the user's device and is quite robust.

On IOS it's like on Android but the phone ID is called MAID (Mobile Advertising ID).

How to retrieve UUID ( For the Web )

Solution 1

Go in your browser and open the console. ( or Developers tools , it depends of your browser brand )

Past this piece of code JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('appconsent')).consents.uuid and hit Enter. It will give you directly your UUID. ( works on any web browser ).

Solution 2

To retrieve your UUID you can go to the website where your Notice run and then open your Browser Console or the Firefox developer tools. You should have this :

Then go to Application and click on local storage, like this :

In the exemples below, 127.0.0.1:8000 must match your website domain: like mywebsite.com and so on.

Open consents and you should see your uuid like the example below :

Now that you have your UUID you can insert it in the UUID field.

note

For Android and iOS we talk about IDFA or GAID. It's not the same process.
