    • Returns the level 1 breakdown element identifier (sys_id) from the indicator of the current formula. The sys_id is returned dynamically, as the selection in the Analytics Hub changes.

    Use this method when altering a formula for a specific element. For example, use the method when running a query to count different attributes, such as excluding scores for changes from groups that do not change.
