Reading this, it is unclear to me:

"GetPublisherId() as String" wrote:

Returns a unique identifier of the unit running the script. The string returned is a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) as specified in IETF-RFC 4122 with 36 characters (32 alphanumeric characters and four hyphens). The characters are grouped in the form 8-4-4-4-12, for example "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000". This identifier is different across channels so each channel will get a different identifier when calling this function. This id is persistent and cannot be reset;

What does it mean by "persistent" there, what are the boundaries of it? Is said ID:

• unique-per-install (i.e. uninstalling and re-installing on same device will change it)


• unique-per-user (i.e. installing the same channel on all devices under same user account will return same ID)


• unique-per-device (i.e. ID persists on this very device, even if factory reset and switched to a new user account)

Bump @Roku* ?

The last one. The publisher ID is derived from the channel ID and the unit's serial number. So for a given channel and a given unit, it will never change.

Splendid, thank you. That line would be good to include in the doc.
