The unique identify of the configuration item is the combination of the attributes AuthoringScopeID, LogicalName and Version. Each attribute is part of the unique identity of the configuration item; the actual identity is AuthoringScopeID + LogicalName + Version. AuthoringScopeID (string) - This attribute corresponds to the author’s namespace or identity. LogicalName (string) - This attribute identifies the configuration item within the authoring scope.
