pushwoosh setTags "Device not found" error

Question

setTags method always returns a 201 error code, the device is not found. even though I use the same device id in the createMessage method and it works fine. Are those different? I mean aren't "devices" and "hwid" both refer to the same thing ? devices are a list of hwids, right?

Hello, Thank you for contacting us! deviceId and hwid are two different things. If you check the registerDevice method, there is a "push_token" or "deviceID", which is being sent by APNS/GCM. It is unique for each app on each device, even though with iOS sometimes it is similar for several different apps on one device. hwid is the hardware ID that we set with our SDK. It is being sent in setTag method. Please note that you do not have to add anything manually. The setTag method is a method that our SDK calls, so it takes the same hwid which is used in registerDevice. Please let me know if I may be of any further help!
