Calendar event creation and UID parsing

Hi all,

I’m finally getting down to finding some new solutions to the scripting environment imposed as from Mavericks and Yosemite in regard to Calendar scripting - your recent feedback (dressing the process by ID to assure cross-OS compatibility) was promising but didn’t live up to my expectations.

I do notice one thing to start off this: creating an event takes up to 39 seconds (Whaaa?).
Is this a behaviour you also notice? Please note that our calendars are synced over iCloud - which might be part of the answer.

Secondly, because the search for a particular term is sooooooo lame (I used to search a number generated from our Filemaker solution previously), I have decided to go for a more integrated approach using the Calendar app’s UIDs.
For this to work, I will need to to parse the result, which returns as such: 

event id "0105626A-2B1A-4738-A2D6-0F0CDF6619B8" of calendar id "8AAA0533-87C5-4E5E-A087-ABA983BEDB47”.

Impossible for the moment to find a way of parsing the result back into text to throw it back into Filemaker for future use. Any ideas? 

Many thanks in advance for your input. And quite nice to be back in the game and reading you again.

J.
