# BP\_UGS\_Helpers

This class holds a selection of helper functions which are available globally.

## <mark style="color:blue;">Functions</mark>

#### <mark style="color:yellow;">Filter Tags By Parent</mark>

This function returns all tags matching a specified parent tag. For example, if the tag container includes `A1.B2.C3`, `A1.B2.C4`, `A1.B3.C5` and the parent tag is `A1.B2` then it'll return `A1.B2.C3` and `A1.B2.C4`. Tags like `A1.B3.C5` won't be included because it doesn't match the parent tag.

#### <mark style="color:yellow;">Find First Tag By Parent</mark>

This function returns the first tag that matches a specified parent tag. For example, if a tag container includes `A1.B2.C3` and the parent tag is `A1.B2`, the result will be the first tag under this parent.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hiveminddocs.gitbook.io/hivemind/code-systems/ultimate-gathering-system-ugs/classes/bp_ugs_helpers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
