The GUID's of your contacts from your address book (contact list api)? Can you please provide more information on what you're trying to do (code samples / description / etc.)?

I use yosdk. This is my code:

$y = YahooSession::requireSession('xxxx', 'xxxx');
$yahoo_user = $y->getSessionedUser();

// My app has a valid session


$arr_friend = $yahoo_user->getContacts(0,2000);

// After i have arr result friend, i know Contact id.

// Fetch GUID form ContactID:

This is my function that added into Yahoo.inc in class YahooUser, after function getContacts

function getGuid($cid) {


$response = $this->client->get(sprintf("http://%s/v1/user/%s/contact/%s/guids",
SOCIAL_WS_HOSTNAME,
urlencode($this->guid),$cid));

if(is_null($response) || $response["code"] != 200) {
return NULL;
}
else return $response["responseBody"];
}

I use this function to fetch guid from cid of contacts.

$yahoo_user->getGuid(cid);

But the result is null.

Hey lieumang_hva,

If the contacts that you obtain have an associated guid (for instance, added under profiles) you can obtain the GUID from the object returned from getContacts. I just ran a test and the following provided the GUID of the first contact returned:



If you have a yid, you can do a yid to guid conversion using YQL - see http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/?q=...D%27spullara%27

If you don't have a yid or guid, I don't believe there's very much you can do to obtain the guid.

Hope that helps
