UKismetSystemLibrary::GetUniqueDeviceId
Deprecated: Use GetDeviceId instead.
#include "Kismet/KismetSystemLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintPure
Description
Returns the platform-specific unique device id. Deprecated in favor of GetDeviceId, which returns the same underlying value under a clearer name.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Marked as a deprecated function via meta = (DeprecatedFunction) — Blueprint graphs still using this node show a compiler warning telling you to switch to GetDeviceId.
- • As with GetDeviceId, treat the returned value as an opaque identifier rather than a stable cross-platform hardware ID — its format and privacy guarantees differ per platform.
