shareParticipants(forEmailAddresses:)

Fetches share participants with the specified email addresses and returns them to an awaiting caller.

Declaration

func shareParticipants(forEmailAddresses emails: [String]) async throws -> [String : Result<CKShare.Participant, any Error>]

Parameters

  • emails:

    The share participants’ email addresses.

Return Value

A dictionary of fetched share participants. The dictionary uses the email addresses you specify in emails as its keys. The value of each key is a Result that contains either the corresponding fetched share participant, or an error that describes why CloudKit can’t fetch that share participant.

Discussion

CloudKit can translate any valid email address into a share participant. If the email address doesn’t correspond to a known iCloud account, then at share-accept-time, CloudKit offers the accepting participant a vetting process. The accepting participant uses this vetting process to link the email address to an iCloud account.

This method searches for share participants asynchronously and with a low priority. If you want the task to execute with a higher priority, create an instance of CKFetchShareParticipantsOperation and configure it to use the necessary priority.
