PersonID computation (Azure Face API)

Question

I would like to know how the PersonID string (obtained after a call to the PersonGroup Person – Create method of the Face API) is computed. In particular, I would like to know if any information (such as the fields “name” and “userData” for example) can be recovered from it without calling the specific API function Person Group Person – Get.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

PersonID string is just a GUID here . If you create a persion, Azure Face service will provide you with an GUID as the ID of that person. As an identifier , PersonID has none business with person details such as “name” and “userData” .

If you want to get some info of a persion , I am afraid using API function Person Group Person – Get is the only way .
