Using navigator_invoke to launch Calendar app with newEvent screen on Playbook OS2.0

According to the docs for navigator_invoke I should be able to launch the Calendar app from inside my WebWorks app.

I am able to do so by using (blackberry.transport.RemoteFunctionCall), however I am having trouble launching the Calendar app with the correct query params to launch the app at the new event screen.

        var remote = new blackberry.transport.RemoteFunctionCall("blackberry/invoke/invoke");
        remote.addParam("appType", "calendar://newEvent?" + "dateStart="+ start +"&dateEnd=" + end + "&loc=" + loc + "&subj=" + summary);
        remote.makeAsyncCall();

I have a feeling it might be because I'm not giving an accountId query parameter (although the docs do say all parameters are optional :/ ). I imagine this is the accountId of the user, can someone suggest how I may obtain this.

Any insights or advice into this will be much appreciated.

EDIT:
The docs to which I refer:
