Get Id field from object in lightning component code.

I have an attribute that's an sObject like ---  
<aura:attribute name="myAttr" type="MyCustomObject__c"/>

I can get to all the fields via API name except Id.  A reference like {!v.myAttr.id} does not work.  A reference like {!v.myAttr.Name} works fine.

Is there some magic word to get the Id field from an Object in Lighting.

Hi,

It is just the lower/upper case problem most of the time.     {!v.myAttr.Id}   "I" upper case.

Yeah, I just figured that out.  I know JS is case sensitive.  I thought I had coded "Id" but I coded "id".

BTW, here's a real useful line of code I wrote to figure that out.... 
var keys = Object.keys(myAttr); alert(keys);

I put that in the controller righter after myAttr is assigned a value.
