Guys,
I am looking for a node in a subflow to be able to get information about down stream nodes (outside of the subflow). To do this I am retrieving the node.id of a function node and then attempting to match that with data that has been retrieved via the admin API

When I run the function outside the subflow the node id retrieved in the function node matches the admin API however when I execute the same function within a subflow the node.id retrieved does not match the id from the ADMIN API. Is this a feature, or am I doing something silly.
I understand I can define an environment variable and use that to map to the subflow to an instance however I would prefer zero config option.
Thanks
