Confluence comment has child Confluence comment

The Teamwork Graph API is available through Forge's Preview release phase.

Preview features are available to all users and receive the same level of support as generally available features. Schemas, fields, and behavior may still change before general availability (GA), and breaking changes are subject to a minimum 1-month deprecation notice, announced in the Teamwork Graph changelog.

To review the current limitations, see Limitations and considerations.

To share feedback or report an issue, visit the Atlassian developer community.

The ConfluenceCommentHasChildConfluenceComment relationship represents the link between a parent Confluence comment and a child Confluence comment within the Teamwork Graph. It allows you to:

Retrieve child comments for a specific parent comment
Find the parent comment of a child comment
Traverse and analyze comment-hierarchy relationships

Relationship type: Canonical

From object types	To object types
Confluence comment - `ati:cloud:confluence:comment`	Confluence comment - `ati:cloud:confluence:comment`

Cypher

We recommend sending parameterized Cypher queries as below instead of embedding the parameters directly in the query string. This approach will help ensure better performance.
