Hi Everyone ,

Is there a way where in, when a sub process is started by a parent process and we are not passing the parent process id in that sub process, can we determine the process id of that parent process in the sub-process which started?

This is bit urgent.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance....

In a report is the parent ID available. See process metrics.

Siddharth, you may refer to Sathya's advice in this post - forum.appian.com/.../b-49616. He suggests using Process Metrics (parent_process_id()) in a report and getting the result by using the Analytics smart service in the subprocess.
