Platform::String

winrt::hstring

The package-relative application identifier (PRAID) of the tile. The specified app must be in the same package as the calling app. For more info on the PRAID, see the Id attribute of the Application element.

If you are hosting background task(s) in an out-of-process COM server, separate from your main application, then pass as the argument for applicationId the PRAID of the application that defines the windows.backgroundTask extension in its own package manifest.

Remarks

This method is used only in conjunction with multi-app packages. The app identified by applicationId must belong to the same package as the caller.

Although you can specify the calling application's tile in this method, createTileUpdaterForApplication is the preferred method to use with single-app packages.
