//required fields, SaveAsync() throws ArgumentNullException if not set
userActivity.ActivationUri = new Uri("rss-reader:article?" + article.Link);
userActivity.DisplayText = article.Title; //used for details tile text
//optional fields
userActivity.FallbackUri = article.Link;
//we don't have a website for the app, but the article can be viewed in a browser
userActivity.ContentUri = article.Link;
userActivity.VisualElements.Description = article.Summary; //optional
userActivity.ContentInfo = UserActivityContentInfo.FromJson(
@"{
""@context"": ""http://schema.org"",
""@type"": ""Article"",
""author"": ""John Doe"",
""name"": ""How to Tie a Reef Knot""
}");
await userActivity.SaveAsync();

Knowing that a UserActivity is New versus Published can be used to determine whether GetOrCreateUserActivityAsync() returned a newly created UserActivity or one that had been previously created.
