Globally unique identifier for the data record on the object
Other possible database element names
Metadata record identifier
Internal ID
Data record ID
Text/URI
Text or URI
Repeatable
No
Obligation level
Mandatory
Notes
For compatibility with the LIDO harvesting format, the unique identifier for the record must appear in two places: First, the local identifier for the record is requested (<lido:recordID>). This is automatically generated in the database.
Second, a unique identifier for the record is required, which is valid across institutions (<lido:lidoRecID>). A combination of the ISIL and local record number should be used to ensure uniqueness beyond the institution.
