Broadcast Upload Extension invoked by RPSystemBroadcastPickerView - get extension reference?

I have implemented Broadcast Upload Extension in our app. I am offering it to user through RPSystemBroadcastPickerView from my container app with preferredExtension set to our extension.

This is all working nicely. However now in my container App I would like to get a reference to that running Broadcast Upload Extension so from my container app I can react to the broadcast being started or stopped. How would I obtain such reference?

Solution

  • Not possible, ended up communicating between the container app and the extension through App Groups and their NSUserDefaults (adding observer for keys).
