Showing Records in the Contacts App
Your app can use the addressbook URL scheme to launch the Contacts app, displaying a particular person record. This URL scheme takes the unique identifier of the person and an optional “edit” parameter, as shown in the following code listing:
ABPerson * aPerson = <#assume this exists#>; |
// Open the Contacts app, showing the person record. |
NSString * urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"addressbook://%@", [aPerson uniqueId]]; |
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]]; |
// Open the Contacts app, editing the person record. |
NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"addressbook://%@?edit", [aPerson uniqueId]]; |
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]]; |
