What is Unique ID for device coming while choose the device snapshot

See original GitHub issue

Hi There, It may confuse you. I want to know what is the snapshot id 18AFF02F6FD2DE96A173C8B018A42D675ABDCCDE Its not device unique id.

My objective is I want to get co-relate pyicloudService(https://github.com/picklepete/pyicloud) id with the above which is coming like:

{ u'i9vbKRGIcLYqJnXMd1b257kUWnoyEBcEh6yM+IfmiMLh7BmOpALS+w==': <AppleDevice(iPhone 4S: Johnny Appleseed's iPhone)> }

I am not a Java guy, trying to use it. Need your assistance to understand the problem.

Thanks in advance

Thank you. I’ve edited your reply to remove superfluous details. The obvious common ground is the device model/ name that you can tie together. The formatting is slightly different but should be a trivial issue to fix.

I’m not sure how the api.device id is derived. It’s a 384-bit byte sequence. Is it random or a hash derived value that ties in a physical device with an iCloud account? I don’t have the time to research or play with it in detail.

Also backup device ids are not the same as a hardware unique device identifiers. A device may have numerous backups with different backup device ids. A backup may be restored on to different devices each with their own unique device identifier.

Each snapshot has different UDID.

The data you’ve pasted above has one backup with the id 2F462588122B04D7B3681D1BA38B7A728301AB0B. It has three snapshots. There is no snapshot UDID. There is a backup that has been edited out (prior to my editing). It’s difficult for me to comment on data that I cannot see. Are you seeing two backups for the same device?

If you can clarify exactly how you would like to co-relate InflatableDonkey/ PyiCloud I might be able to offer suggestions. If you were looking for a single backup for a particular device, it doesn’t work like that. You may have none, one or many backups for a device.

@dinak1989 It’s not standard functionality but you can code it in.

UniqueDeviceId exists with the Snapshot class within backupProperties which is an NSDictionary.
