Is there any sort of GetPath method

Hi,

For CS 10.0 WS, is there any way, if you already have a node ID (i.e. returned from an excel spreadsheet), to get its path? I know I can do a recursive walk up the tree using the current data ID but that would introduce a lot of round trips in the run of this application. I suspect that the answer is that there is no such function, but I thought I'd ask.

Nothing in the standard WS that I'm aware of, but if the REST API is available, there is a method returning ancestors:

api/v1/nodes/{id}/ancestors

if one didn't want to dataid:parentid:grandparentid:greatgrandparentid until one reached the top you could create a DB function which could get you that in one shot,then you would call that in a livereport but wait I think there could be problems until you tested that.

Well, if I called the wrongnumber, why did you answer the phone?
