For each device in the `SET_CERTIFIED_DEVICES` payload, there is an `id` field. This `id` should be the Windows device's UUID, retrieved through the native Windows API. You'll get back something that looks like `{0.0.1.00000000}.{6cff2b76-44a8-46b9-b528-262ad8609d9f}`.

For Windows, you can get every single device UUID using this PowerShell command:
```pwsh
Get-PnpDevice | Where-Object { $_.Class -match "AudioEndpoint" } | Select-Object -Property FriendlyName, InstanceId
```
And you'd get a fancypants list like this you'd reduce to your device:
```
FriendlyName InstanceId
