I am using the following docker container to compile my firmware: [https://hub.docker.com/r/particle/buildpack-particle-firmware](https://hub.docker.com/r/particle/buildpack-particle-firmware).

Where the platform ID is 6 - I am using the same steps in the Docker readme.

After building I attempt to upload the firmware to my Product dashboard, so I can distribute to my fleet and I get the below error:

`Bummer! Your firmware could not be created. The platform id in the binary must match the product platform id`

My `library.properties` file has the `architectures=dependent on particle-electron`. And the `main.ino` lists the product version and product ID correctly. What other change do I have to make?

Note this post is different: [Bummer! Your firmware could not be created. The platform id in the binary must match the product platform id](https://community.particle.io/t/bummer-your-firmware-could-not-be-created-the-platform-id-in-the-binary-must-match-the-product-platform-id/27950). I am not using the IDE.

Electron has platform ID 10 instead of 6 for Photons.

Thanks. I must have missed this in the Docs.
