Get parent page ID

`page.getParentPageId()`

Get the ID of the source page that a branch was created from, or null if the page is not a branch.

Use this method together with webflow.switchPage() to navigate from a branch back to the main page.

Syntax

1 page.getParentPageId(): Promise<string | null>

Returns

Promise<string | null>

A Promise that resolves to the parent page ID as a string when the page is a branch, or null when the page is not a branch.

Example

1 const currentPage = await webflow.getCurrentPage()
2 
3 const parentPageId = await currentPage.getParentPageId()
4 if (parentPageId) {
5   console.log('Branch source page ID:', parentPageId)
6 
7   // Navigate back to the main page
8   const allPages = await webflow.getAllPagesAndFolders()
9   const parentPage = allPages.find(p => p.id === parentPageId)
10   if (parentPage) {
11     await webflow.switchPage(parentPage)
12   }
13 } else {
14   console.log('This page is not a branch.')
15 }
