How do you display Parent Activation ID in an entitlement email in FlexNet Operations On-Premises?

Summary

How do you display Parent Activation ID in an entitlement email?

Question

We need to display the Parent Activation ID in the Entitlement Email HTML template (in case of upgrade) in FlexNet Operations On-Premises.

The following display correctly the activation ID :
Activation ID: <xsl:value-of select="@ActivationID"/><br />

So we tried the following for the parent, but it didn't work:
Parent Activation ID: <xsl:value-of select="@ParentActivationID"/><br />

What is the tag to use to display the Parent Activation ID of an Entitlement Line Item?

Answer

Is this is using the XSL content of the template, and not the merge tags? Merge tag would be
[[ParentLineItemActivationID]].

In the XSLT, the @ sign indicates an attribute value of an element, not a sub-element.
ActivationID is the only attribute of the EntitlementLineItem element. So inside the
EntitlementLineItem loop, this should provide the result you're looking for:

<xsl:value-of select=" ParentLineItemActivationID "/>< br />
