roDeviceInfo.GetChannelClientId Size or Digit are Fixed (8-4-4-4-12) the same as Mac Address?

Jump to solution

OS Roku 9.2 Deprecated API :

The roDeviceInfo.GetConnectionInfo() method no longer returns a device's MAC address. Developers can use roDeviceInfo.GetChannelClientId method to uniquely identify devices.

I print my unique id is like "803994f9-59c0-5874-83f4-481c8b0d220c".

Does Anyone know this unique id Size or Digit are Fixed (8-4-4-4-12) like a MAC Address 12-digit hexadecimal number?

I would bet that it returns the same format as GetRandomUUID().
