Apple ID/Google ID/Miscrosoft ID email and Entitlement (what is the user email?)

Sorry for this question about an entitlement app.


I need to understand if the email of the user must be always the own Apple ID/Google ID/ Miscrosoft ID email?

Not clear the documentation in this point: if i create a user in my backend how can i know the user Apple ID/Google ID/ Miscrosoft ID?


Really thanks.

Entitlement in DPS 2015 is no different than entitlement in the current version of DPS. It's just an email address. Your entitlement server is the one that manages the addresses, passwords, and what that email is allowed to access. It has nothing to do with Adobe IDs, Google IDs, Windows Live IDs, etc.

You might find the resources at Entitlement | Adobe Developer Connection helpful to learn more about entitlement. While the documents are for the current version of DPS it's basically the same in DPS 2015.

Purchases from the store are separate from logging into the entitlement system. The login to your entitlement server doesn't even have to be an email address. It's up to you when you implement the entitlement server to decide what username/password combination you want to do.

Most companies use email address, but even there it's just an email address. It has nothing to do with an in-app purchase so it doesn't have to be one of the ID types you mention.

Sorry Neil.

If i have a retail app how my users could buy the contents if they can not use their Apple IDs, Google IDs, Windows Live IDs, etc...?

Without Apple IDs or Google IDs you can not buy anything from the store (Apple or Google).

Really thanks!
