You can easily find your Installation ID with the "Find my Installation" feature on Android or using the Terminal application.
Usually, using the Custom User ID is the easiest way to locate your device on Batch and register yourself as a tester on the platform.
However, this identifier isn't always available in Batch:
It's usually only set for logged-in users.
You may not know your Custom User ID.
This is why Batch created the Installation ID. This ID is unique and is generated when the application is installed.
The Installation ID is renewed every time the app is uninstalled/reinstalled.
You can retrieve your Installation ID following the methods below:
From version 1.18 of our SDK, Batch will copy the Installation ID to the clipboard when the application appears in the foreground 4 times within 20 seconds.
Here is how to do it:
Close your application (from the background)
Reopen it and switch to the background 4 times in a row in less than 20 seconds
Open a clipboard and paste the text: this is your Installation ID!
You can also follow the video below:
If you use an older version of the SDK or if you have deactivated this feature via our dedicated method, we recommend displaying the Installation ID somewhere in the app: Displaying the installation ID.
If it hasn't been done, you'll still be able to find your Installation ID following the option detailed below.
To do so, please refer to our documentation on how to check Batch logs on Android.
