YetiForce APP ID

App ID

Why was APP ID created?

Registration

The registration mechanism required linking registration data with a specific instance of the YetiForce system, which required creating a unique identifier for a given instance. Otherwise, it would be impossible to identify the system.

Marketplace

When you buy some of the products available in our Marketplace, you will need to provide us with your APP ID, which will verify which system the add-on has been purchased for. As the system producer, we don't collect any identifying information about the system, therefore, when you purchase services that we need to activate for you, we will have to verify the APP ID.

What does YetiForce APP ID consist of?

APP ID is a checksum which includes the following components:

warning

If your APP ID changes all your purchased addons will be deactivated. Please check the FAQ at the bottom of the Addons page to find out how to activate them again.

Why does the APP ID change?

The APP ID must include unique elements for each server, so that the ID is also unique and not duplicated, which is why it has so many components. If any of the above mentioned parameters change, the APP ID will change as well, which will require the system to be registered once again.

The APP ID often changes in the Docker environment if it's not properly protected against APP ID changes. The APP ID will also change if you move your system to another server.

Below you can find a short tutorial on how and where to find the APP ID.
