Path from Component (configuration) to its siblings (other configurations)?

In my script while traversing an assembly, i come a cross a 'Component' that is configured. (component.parentDesign.isConfigured = True)

So that parentDesign has a configurationRowId, but not a configuration(Top)Table set.

 

Now i would like to iterate through all the other possible configurations for that component ... But i do not find a path back to the full configurationTable.

 

How do i do this ?

If the Design.isConfiguredDesign returns True, you can use the Design.configurationTopTable. However, it looks like something is missing from the API. From a top table, you can't get the parent Design it is in. I was expecting a parentDesign property on the table object.

Indeed. There are a lot of dead ends here. I know the configurations part of the api is experimental ... but still.

Also when the Design.isConfiguration = True ... there is only the configurationRowId ... the configurationTopTable is empty ... so even that would lead nowhere.

 

Hope some Autodesk Fusion API team member can weigh in what is the approach here.
