One of the requirements of publishing custom visual to AppSource is to add GUID to pbiviz. package.
So my question is how to get this?
Can I simply generate it using for instance:

Solved! Go to Solution.
There's no need to generate a GUID manually. We recommend to use pbiviz new command to generate a new visual.
As a result it will also generate a unique GUID for you custom visual.
