Organisational Chart and "Assistants"

Hi,

Using an OrganisationalChart layout you can have an Assistant - a node that appears off to the side in a branch.

as per https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/diagram/layout/organizational-chart/#assistantOrganizational chart in Blazor Diagram component

but there is nothing in that Syncfusion article that explains why the "Role" property on the model is the field that is used to create the parent/assistant link.

Does the diagram look for a hard-coded property named "Role"?

i.e. "Assistant Manager" and "General Manager" are used as the assistant and the root, which are stored in the "Role" property.  But what is special about the "role" property ?

- the reason I ask is because I am trying to introduce an Assistant into my own diagram and I don't have a field named "Role".
What should AssistantDetails.Root and AssistantDetails.Assistants be set to in this case?
When I try putting node ID values, for example, into those AssistantDetails properties then the diagram does not display at all.

Thanks.
