WaykNow installation
We are looking at creating a script that will download Wayk and configure it with a fixed random password and then save the fixed password in a database. We can see how to do that from your documentation.
From some basic testing it seems that the Source ID remains fixed. Is this indeed so?
Assuming it is permanent or semi-permanent, we would also like to capture and store the Source ID for that location.
However I do not see that stored in the config file or anywhere else.
Is there any way of capturing that, other than by word of mouth?
Many thanks.

Hi,
The 6-digit short id can change over time, so even if you were to extract it, it would not be reliable enough.
If you haven't looked into it yet, I would recommend deploying your own Wayk Den: https://github.com/devolutions/WaykDen-ps
With the latest release, we have added support for automatic machine name aliases, such that you can connect through your private Wayk Den using "machine" or "machine.domain.loc" as your target id instead of the 6-digit Wayk ID, which should solve the problem.
As a bonus, you also get machine listing in the Wayk Den Web UI, session audit traces, etc.
Best regards,
