Hello,

We’re looking for a a solution where we can get an event’s priority which set in Studio tool. But provided _getPriority_ function returns -1, which apparently means “use Studio value”.

Is there a way to access that with Studio/Low level API?

At the moment there is no way of getting the priority value set in Studio in the API.  
The only values it will return are any that have been set using setPriority.  
Can I ask what you are wanting to use it for?
