Is there a way to get the partition ID?

I'm trying to get the number of partitions, and the partition ID for each partition within a list. I can get the number of partitions using

content(getvarnode(node("Tools/GlobalLists/ItemList1", model()), "partitions"));

but I can't find how to get the partition ID for each partition.

FlexSim 16.1.2

If you parse through the "partitions" of the list you could return the ID number of the partition using the command getsdtvalue(). Something like getsdtvalue(partition,"id"), where partition is your iteration through the children of the "partitions" node in the tree.

However, what is that you're trying to get the ID number for? Because there might be a different way to approach it.
