# value

A string that represents a person’s account.

## Declaration

```occ
@property (nonatomic, readonly, nullable) NSString * value;
```

## Discussion

Discussion Your app determines the contents of this property using a mechanism you determine fitting to identify the account. Only your app consumes this property and interprets its contents, for example, by ensuring it represents an account with a valid subscription. To avoid collisions with other tokens, make the contents of sufficient length and complexity. To validate the contents, you can include a cryptographic signature. For example, see the JSON Web Token (JWT) specification for a standardized authentication method that features these benefits. On tvOS, if the framework fails to find a token for the current Apple Account, it also checks the system default Apple Account, if different from the current Apple Account. If the default Apple Account also doesn’t have a token, the system stops looking. important: Apple stores the string value to the Apple Account as is; avoid including sensitive information in the value.
