    Accesing the content from immediate parent

    I am trying to access content from my level 2 document type from a sub level. level 2 has multiple pages of same document type. I am using the code below

     var rootByTraversing = Umbraco.AssignedContentItem.AncestorOrSelf(2);
    var openingTimesByDescendants = rootByTraversing.Descendants().Where(f => f.DocumentTypeAlias == "PageLevel2").FirstOrDefault();

    Is it possible for me to get the immediate parent node of this document type and not FirstOrDefault node?

    I don't want to access the content through node id.

    Umbraco.AssignedContentItem returns an IPublishedContent

    To get the parent of a node represented as an IPublischedContent call .Parent To go higher up the tree, use .AncestorOrSelf(1basedIndexOfTheLevelYouWantToReach)

    Try and avoid using .Descendants() because it loads in all nodes below the one you are calling from, this can have serious performance implications on bigger sites.
