Xero NZ Payroll API : Employee number vs GUID?

Viewed 59

Most payroll systems have some sort of employee code that is unique to employees. I have been using the Employees endpoint to GET all employees in the Demo company and can see the EmployeeID field which appears to be a regular GUID. But when browsing the employee list through the Xero user interface it is not possible to see an employee's GUID like we can for Contacts or Invoices?

I actually just see a number like this... What is this number at the end of the URL?
