Folks.Persona.uid – folks Reference Manual

# uid

## Description:

public string uid { get; construct; }

The universal ID used to represent the Persona outside its Backend.

This is opaque, and should only be parsed by clients using Persona.split_uid .

This is the canonical way to refer to any Persona. It is guaranteed to be unique within the Persona's PersonaStore.

A Persona's UID is immutable over the life of the Persona in the backing store, so a given UID is guaranteed to refer to the same Persona each time libfolks is used, until the Persona is permanently removed from its backing store.
