Hi, my app sends a message every minute with info from the user to a database. The problem is that I'm going to install the app in many devices, which are going to send the data to the same database. For that reason I need to include in the message who's sending the message for example the user id or the name. Is there a way to achieve that? Or any different way. Thank you.

Unfortunately, there's no unique device ID or user ID. You could make users authenticate via the Settings API, or perhaps assign them a unique ID on their first request.
