how to uniqely identify chromeos device in chrome app? how to uniqely identify chromeos device in chrome app?

I need to find a way to uniquely identify each chromeos device in my chrome app. The app will be running on multiple devices, and I need to be able to track which device is which.Ideally, I would like to be able to get the serial number of the device, but I'm not sure if that's possible. If not, I would settle for something like the MAC address.Does anyone have any ideas?

There is no built-in way to uniquely identify a Chrome OS device from within a Chrome app. However, if you need to uniquely identify a device for your app, there are a couple of options you can explore:

Use the chrome.system.deviceInfo API to get information about the device, such as the manufacturer, model, and serial number.
Use the chrome.enterprise.deviceAttributes API to get information about the device, such as the asset ID and location.

Both of these APIs require the "system.deviceInfo" or "enterprise.deviceAttributes" permission, respectively, in order to be used.

The easiest way to uniquely identify a Chrome OS device is by its serial number. You can find the serial number by going to "Settings > About Chrome OS." The serial number will be listed under the "Device" section.
