Gregory,

I have already stored the user id (UID integer) in the Database. But I didn't get UID instead of DBID. You told correct, i will stored the account_id. Even I need the UID to get for old user account info. 

My Questions is,

  1. Is there any function to get UID in V2 version not V1?
  2. How to migrate the UID to DBID?

Please give a solution.
