How to access Appmaker Revision ID?

Question

I'd like to access the Revision ID for my appmaker app so I can display it inside the app somewhere. This is the ID in Settings > Revisions.

How can I programatically access Revision ID?

Answer 2

An app's revision ID can be accessed server side like this:

function getRevisionId() {
  return app.a.a.a[36].c.revision;
}
