Info
Added in 5.1.0 / 1.15.0

Returns information about a battle pet.

summonedPetGUID = C_PetJournal.GetSummonedPetGUID()

Returns

summonedPetGUID

string - GUID identifying the currently-summoned battle pet, or nil if no battle pet is summoned.

Details

Blizzard has moved all petIDs over to the "petGUID" system, but left all of their functions using the petID terminology (not the petGUID terminology) except for this one. For consistency, the term "petID" should continue to be used.

Patch changes

Patch 5.1.0 (2012-11-27): Changed to C_PetJournal.GetSummonedPetGUID(), the first argument is now a GUID string.

• The GUID can be derived from the old (numeric) unique pet IDs using petGUID = ("0x%016x"):format(petID).
  

Patch 5.0.4 (2012-08-28): Added (as C_PetJournal.GetSummonedPetID()).
