Focus focus area has child Focus focus area

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.

The FocusFocusAreaHasChildFocusFocusArea relationship represents the hierarchical link between focus areas, where one focus area can have child focus areas. It allows you to:

Retrieve child focus areas under a specific parent focus area
Find parent focus areas for a specific focus area
Build and traverse focus area hierarchies for organizational structure

Relationship type: Canonical

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.
