ABRecordGetRecordID返回-1

Question

I am trying to get the ABRecordID of a record, but it always returns -1. Here is my code:

 NSNumber *recordId = [NSNumber numberWithInteger:ABRecordGetRecordID(person)];

I can retrieve other informations without any problems :/ Any solutions?

You need to request authorization ( ABAddressBookRequestAccessWithCompletion ) to be able to get a record identifier. Otherwise you just get an ABPersonRef with a copy of the data.
