Fetch main node ID in relation

I need to fetch the main node ID from a relations datatype in a class. I will use the node id in a def, wich will build up a fetch. Im stuck at this point:

{$node.object.nyhet.object.id} will give me the object id.. this is not enough i need the "main node id"
When i use {$node.nyhet|attribute( show, 1 )} i find the node id is under "main_node_id", but i havent found a way to output this so i can use it in the def.

Any suggestions?

Hi Pål,

I'm not a 100% sure what exactly the problem is. Maybe this
information helps you:

{def $related_object_node_id = 0 }

{foreach $node.data_map.objectrelations.content.relation_list as $related_object}

   
   {set $related_object_node_id = $related_object.node_id}

   Contains related objects with node_id: {$related_object_node_id}<br />

{/foreach}

So my class has an attribute with the datatype "objectrelationlist" with the name "objectrelations". As you can see, I get all related objects in the foreach-loop.

Each $realted_object is an array with additional information. For example, you can read the "node_id". This node_id is always the main_node_id.

Let me know if this feedback helps or if you need more information.
