  • Reference

Definition

Assembly:
System.Web.dll

public string AnonymousID { get; }
member this.AnonymousID : string
Public ReadOnly Property AnonymousID As String

Property Value

String

A string representing the current anonymous user identifier.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the AnonymousID property by handling the Creating event in the Global.asax file. This example has two parts:

  • A method in the Global.asax file that handles the Creating event.

  • A Web Forms page.

The first part of the code example shows how to set the AnonymousID property by handling the Creating event in the Global.asax file. The method that is named AnonymousIdentification_Creating sets the AnonymousID property when an anonymous ID is created.

void Application_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Initialize user count property
        Application["UserCount"] = 0;
    }
    
public void AnonymousIdentification_Creating(Object sender, AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs e)
    {
    // Change the anonymous id
    e.AnonymousID = "mysite.com_Anonymous_User_" + DateTime.Now.Ticks;

    // Increment count of unique anonymous users
    Application["UserCount"] = Int32.Parse(Application["UserCount"].ToString()) + 1;
}

Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

    'Initialize user count property
    Application("UserCount") = 0

End Sub

Sub AnonymousIdentification_Creating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AnonymousIdentificationEventArgs)

    ' Change the anonymous id
    e.AnonymousID = "mysite.com_Anonymous_User_" & DateTime.Now.Ticks

    ' Increment count of unique anonymous users
    Application("UserCount") = Int32.Parse(Application("UserCount").ToString()) + 1

End Sub

The second part of the code example shows how to display the new AnonymousID that is created by the AnonymousIdentification_Creating event handler in the preceding example.

Remarks

The AnonymousID property assigns a long-lived unique identifier to a non-authenticated user, which can be used to track the user or assign profile properties to that user without storing data in a Session object. By default, the AnonymousID property is tracked using a cookie, but it can be set to use the URI when the Cookieless attribute in the anonymous identification configuration section is set to either the UseUri, UseDeviceProfile, or AutoDetect value. You must explicitly clear the cookie if you no longer want it available, for example when an anonymous user is authenticated.

Anonymous identification is used when there is a need to identify entities that are not authenticated and when authorization is required. For more information, see anonymousIdentification Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema).
