From a child FlexCard, which syntax correctly accesses a parent data value?

• A. Parent fields can be accessed using {Parent.FieldName} syntax.
• B. Child cards cannot reference parent fields.
• C. Parent data is always available without passing.
• D. Only certain fields can be passed.

Answer: (A)

Accessing data from a parent FlexCard in a child uses the Parent scope in a binding expression. The correct way is {Parent.FieldName}, where FieldName is the name of the field on the parent you want to read. This pattern lets the child display or use the parent’s value directly, keeping data flow clear and avoiding duplication. The idea that you can’t reference parent fields isn’t accurate, and data isn’t always available in a child without some form of binding or passing—what matters is using the Parent prefix to access the parent’s values.
