Get device Id from Mobile First

I added the above code in main.js inside the wlCommonInit function.

   var options = {
                onSuccess: succ,
                onFailure: fail
        };
        WL.Device.getID(options);
        function succ(data) {
            alert('succ ' + JSON.stringify(data));
        }

        function fail() {
            alert('fail');
        }

But I am getting Uncaught TypeError: WL.Device.getID is not a function error in desktop web console.

Is it possible to add this code in other js files?

Please suggest!!

Since you see it in Desktop web console, I take it you are trying out Desktop Browser environment/ Mobile Web app.

This API is not applicable in either case. It works only on Android, iOS, WindowsPhone8, Blackberry, Blackberry10. For more details refer to KnowledgeCenter.
