Uniquely Identify Widget Users

FAQ - This post is taken from a list of the most frequently asked questions during the pre-release of the WDK

I need some tips on how to identify users. I'm guessing that involves using cookies? Which is the easiest way to assign every user a unique id and identifying them using that id as they use our widget from that moment on?

  • You can have JS generate and store a GUID since JS has random number generators and store this ID in your widget. If it's not required for security purposes that should work fine for a unique ID.
