Oculus VOIP in Unity

Hi,
I'm trying to learn how to use the VOIP feature in the Oculus platform sdk for Unity. I found the page on Oculus' site but I'm running into an issue with the call to start. Where I am supposed to enter the userID (ulong), I'm not certain what it is asking for. Is it asking for the unity network userID or a unique Oculus userID? How can I get that ulong?
Or if anyone knows of a good tutorial/video on setting up the VOIP feature, that would be great :)

Ive not used the oculus voip implementation yet but if its requiring a ulong userId then its refering to an oculus user id. User ids are unique to your appId so once youve connected to the platform you can query your friend list to retrieve the relevant id to use as an input parameter

Thanks MikeF :)
That does help. I guess I was hoping that it was more of a "who's in the instance" thing, but this can work too.

Now I need to learn how to get the OculusID of another user in the same instance of the game (using unity network manager to connect).
Would the object with the Network Identity hold that info?
