I have a workflow that is calling a child workflow. I would like to obtain the GUID of the parent workflow's system job within the child workflow. how can I get it with a custom workflow activity?

    Workaround for you:

    You can create one field on entity which you are using in child workflow.

    Now from parent workflow update the new field with parent workflow id then that filled you can use in child workflow.

    Thank You,
