Tempo News Feed Updation

We have an use case where a news feed is posted and has a record identifier attached to it. We were under the assumption that the unique id for this record identifier will not change. But we have encountered a business scenario wherein id can get updated by a different system, So is there a way to update the record identifier in news feed with the latest value(besides posting comments)?

Why are the ID's getting modified? Typically, an Entity model should enforce a unique key to identify the entity and stay the same for the lifespan of the entity (especially in situations where the entity can be referenced and used in other places). Changing the ID is breaking a fundamental law of maintaining integrity in your entity model. So, I'd like to understand what is the use case for the ID to change. Probably, it would help figure out how to address this issue.
