Hi

Currently, the last part (uuid a4d87cda-2afd-47d4-8d3f-b0658466fb2d) is
generated by UUID.randomUUID(), so there is not a easy way to map this to
the assigned in the application.
In another word, the last part (uuid
a4d87cda-2afd-47d4-8d3f-b0658466fb2d) belongs
to one checkpoint, and the assigned in the application belongs to one
operator, they are different.

Best,
Congxian
