Looking for an immutable ID for Azure Maps locations

We use Azure Maps in our own app to let users search for a location and favorite it. We are trying to find an immutable ID to save, as we need a way to quickly let users go back and query for those again.
In the data response, we did get an "id" for the POI, but it seemed to change. So we tried using the "info" field, which doesn't regularly change, but we can't tell if it will be changing on a long term basis.

Question:
Is "info" ok to use, and won't change? If not, what should we use?

Azure Maps
Azure Maps

    Currently POI's do not have immutable ID's, however this is something we are looking into with our data provider as a possible future feature.
