The getUserPreferenceSetID() method is used to retrieve the user preference set ID associated with an external user. If no user preferences exist for an external user, then the default preferences will be used for the external user. The User Preferences chapter in the Cúram Server Developer's Guide should be referenced for further details on user preferences.

The default implementation for this method should return the user preference set ID for the user preferences associated with an external user.
