Feature request: globally unique identifier

robertherber opened this issue · 0 comments

I'd like to access a globally unique identifier of a calendar event, to make it possible to match events across devices. The use cases for this are many, for me the primary are:

  • enabling syncing between devices without duplication
  • mapping this globally unique identifier to the local identifier to display this synced event optimally on the device.

On iOS there is calendarItemExternalIdentifier and on Android there seems to be UID_2445.

Having used this library before I have a slight memory of seeing something like this before - did it disappear somewhere along the way?
