System-Console: get JTAG Hash

What command should I use to get the JTAG Hash from the System-Console?

I want to manage multiple FPGAs connected to a computer, in an automated way. For this, I need to be able to read some device ID. The JTAG Hash seems ideal, but there are no APIs available to do so. Can you recommend another device ID that can be read from the System Console API?

Or is there another way to read the JTAG Hash or else from a Windows API?

Whenever the devices get unplugged/rebooted, their USB ID changes (1,2,3,4...), so the USB ID is not enough to identify the device.

thank you
