Identifying a "root" recurring item from a recurrence instance.

[Ty Cia]

Hi,

Is there any way to identify a "root" recurring event given a recurrence instance? For example, imagine the schedulers data source contains a "root" recurring event on 1/7/2025 recurring weekly every Tuesday. The scheduler appears to create a new instance of the data model for each instance of the recurring event that is displayed in the current view, however, each recurrence instance appears to contain a different Id than the original "root" event. Is there any way to identify the "root" event given the recurrence instance? Such as when the context of a quick info template is a recurrence instance?

Note: I am using Guid for Ids.

Thank you

Hi Ty Cia,

 

In the occurrences, the ID will be the same as the Parent ID. By using that ID, you can retrieve the parent of the occurrences. Please refer to the attached image for your reference.
