[BB-API] Performance id in the XML download

[Ian Cresshull]

The Bellboard XML download contains an attribute "id", which, I assume, is a
unique key for the performance in the Bellboard database.

 

It appears that when a Bellboard performance is Amended it gets a new "id".
This new id is the value included in XML "id" attribute and so it is not
possible to use this as a unique identifier for performances downloaded.

 

Bellboard must track amended performances back to an original id, the
example on the API documentation page, requesting id=110081, currently
returns performance id=1208892, which is an amended form of id=110081.

 

Would it be possible to a record of the original performance id in the XML
download?

 

Thanks

 

Regards

 

Ian
