The docs say: "A unique identifier for the store at the given URL. It must be uniquely and reproducibly derivable, such that multiple instances of your store return the same UUID” My reading is that the store UUID would be unique to a specific database since it is only unique to the URL location of the store. I thin the docs use “instance” in a strictly OOP sense. HTH, Keary Suska Esoteritech, Inc.
