Problem to solve
We need to retrieve the parent pipeline ID for a child pipeline for reporting. Currently we have to resort ot ugly API calls from inside the job, which need to be done in every place we want the variable, or passing them explictely with the trigger keyword.
Intended users
People who use the CI.
