Hi,


Firstly, I'm sorry if this doesn't belong to this topic. (Not sure if it's a problem)


I'm trying to store something unique related with the freshdesk instance when a customer installs my app.


We are receiving a payload like this:

{

"account_id" : "value",

"domain" : "value",

"event" : "value",

"region" : "value",

"timestamp" : "value",

"iparams" : {

"Param1" : "value",

"Param2" : "value"

}

}



Is the account_id the instance unique identifier? I can't consider the domain as unique because it can change easily on the future... And that could break the app.


Regards.

Hi Paulo,


I understand you're trying to confirm whether `account_id` is unique or not. 


In order to provide you best solution, can you provide me few more details?


  1. Just  a High level context of use case that your app is trying to solve. .In 1 or 2 lines]
  2. Type of the App: Custom App or Marketplace App
  3. Feature or Features that your app is using? ?Data API or Instance API or so on]
Best,
Saif



Hi Saif Ali,

1. I'm trying to relate app data with freshdesk instanes. I don't think it's a good idea to use the instance url as unique, because it can be change and could brake database relationships...

2. Marketplace App

3. Serverless - App Setup Events:

{

"account_id" : "value",

"domain" : "value",

"event" : "value",

"region" : "value",

"timestamp" : "value",

"iparams" : {

"Param1" : "value",

"Param2" : "value"

}

}
Is this account_id a unique identifier for instances? That don't change...


Kind regards,
Paulo Alves.



Hi Paulo,

Thanks for your effort giving me right context.


Yes, you can use account_id as a unique identifier for each instance in the app.


Best,

Saif
