Understanding parent_id in Arize AX's Agent Flow View

in Arize AX, there's a nice agent flow view, which can be instrumented using contextmanagers and attributes. ( link: https://arize.com/docs/ax/observe/agents/implementing-agent-metadata-for-arize) what exatly does parent_id mean in this example? how would the output graph look like?

hi 🔒[private user], thanks for coming back here - i think the question is now well answered by you providing a visual example of how it's represented. so, the graph edges are inferred by the spans/traces but the hierachy is not (through setting parent_id / id).
