I have an issue trying to get the value of a field in a parent object in javascript. 

e.g. Getting the Industry of an Account from a Contact record.


I’m currently using 


skuid.model.getModel(modelName).getFirstRow()RxmlDef.attr(‘tst’)];


Where ‘modelName’ is the model and ‘tst’ is the field chosen in the properties(Account__r.Industry). 
I have verified that the field is included in the model.

I am able to get around if by creating a UI-only formula field that references the desired field. 


I am able to get it to return the value if I do the following


skuid.model.getModel(modelName).getFirstRow().Account__r.Industry;


Has anyone else encountered this same issue? Or am I using the incorrect method to get the value? 

Hi CC, I’m sorry that your post was left unanswered for such a long time. If you are still seeing this issue, please check the following documentation for the correct method: https://docs.skuid.com/latest/v1/en/skuid/api/skuid_model_model.html#skuid.model.Model.getFieldValue
