Previously, privately shared solutions could not be easily identified and attributed to specific authors. They appeared in our logs and metrics as {solution}@user and were indistinguishable from test deployments done by solution authors themselves.
With this change, solution IDs associated with deployments of private solutions will be in the format of {solution}@{unique_share_id}. For example:
mysolution@share13f93a6bee754433b223685f6197add7
Besides allowing us to effortlessly track the usage of the “share” feature, this will also enable us to build comprehensive reporting for authors (particularly, ISVs) who privately share solutions with their customers.
