This fetches the Google Advertising ID, salts it and then applies hashing before sending a ping with it, at startup. Hashing and salting are used in order to prevent ourselves to correlate advertising IDs from the same user running different products we own off a single device. We will never send the client_id and the Google Advertising ID in the same ping.

# The `activation` ping
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
This ping provides a measure of the activation of mobile products.
|
|
|
|
## Scheduling
|
|
The `activation` ping is automatically sent at the very first startup, after Glean is initialized.
|
|
It is only sent once and only re-attempted a subsequent startups if it hasn't been sent yet.
|
|
|
|
## Contents
|
|
This ping contains the following fields:
|
|
|
|
| Field name | Type | Description |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `identifier` | String | An hashed and salted version of the Google Advertising ID from the device. |
|
|
| `activation_id` | UUID | An alternate identifier, not correlated with the client_id, generated once and only sent with the activation ping. |
|
|
|
|
The `activation` ping also includes the common [ping sections](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/master/components/service/glean/docs/pings/pings.md#ping-sections)
|
|
found in all pings, with the exclusion of the `client_id` (as defined by the [`pings.yaml`](../app/pings.yaml) file).
