Thank you. I saw that as well, but so few people are on API 17 that's not a viable option yet.
I agree that adding a UUID to every description is not a great option as the users might dislike that. Too bad there's isn't a universally accepted "free-form" hidden field that could be used for this. ________________________________ From: Nobu Games <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: don rhummy <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2013 10:46 AM Subject: Re: How identify calendar event across devices? What I did in one of my apps was adding a tag with a UUID in each event description text. It's not really pretty but I could not find any other solution to this problem. However, I just checked again and noticed that API level 17 introduced an additional events column called UID_2445. It's the iCalendar unique event id. A little late to the party, but better late than never.

The "_id" seems to be a local Id. > > > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
