The given options always take precedence over all other option sources.

Returns the instance ID of the newly created picker. The ID is unique within the scope of a page's global window context. The ID can be given to the various methods offered by this module to perform operations on the appointment picker.

When an appointment picker was already initialized, does nothing and simply returns its ID.

The instance ID for each of the newly created pickers.
