How to find identifier of a photo asset in IOS

Question

I am writing an app which saves a photo stored in a custom album and associates other information with it in an object. The object is then saved in core data. I would like to store a reference to the photo in the object. Is there a unique identifier that is available or can be derived. I need to be able to access the photo. I am using Photos framework.

Answer 1

Keep in mind that localIdentifier's may change when iOS is updated, and in this case whatever value you had saved locally will become useless.
