id Unique Id String The system assigned unique id to identify this Object.
Could be implemented as as sequence number or as a UUID.

Attempts to set this value on creates should result in a ReadOnlyException being thrown

An Id:

  • An id is used when the actual value is unimportant and
    can therefore be a large hex value for example

  • An id value might be 23b9ca9bd203df902

  • An Id is never intended to be used directly by an end
    user.

  • Ids are assumed to be of different values in different
    KS implementations

  • Id values are generated by the service
    implementations

  • Id values are never expected to be used in
    Configuration or Application code
