Emojis within feature notifications 😀☠️💣
Nothing new, but I would like to point out that we can put emoji within feature warnings!

Re: Onshape API: How to get the source Part (Part ID like #JFD) of a Derived part?
You can get the source part id from the /partstudios/…./features endpoint.
The parameter "partStudio" → partQuery → Queries → geometry IDs
The caveat is that it also depends on what version of the api endpoint you use.
for example:
doing /api/v12/partstudios/…/features won't give it to you (Gives a compressed query)
but /api/v1/partstudios/…/features will give it to you (gives a list of geometry ids).
Some API versions are slightly different in what information they give you. Sometimes you need to try a couple different ones to find the one that works for your specific needs.
Re: Configure Part Name Feature?
@EvanReese thanks for this! One issue … if you rename a part (e.g. Part1 → End1) and then apply the Part Name feature to the now-renamed part (End1), the name does not apply. I was able to reset the part to the default by going into the part's properties and clicking the Reset All button. But it seems like the feature should be able to overwrite the custom name.
Re: How to copy a sketch by 90 degrees
Thank you, that was helpful! I wanted to copy the sketch only and I was trying the circular pattern, but I had overseen the drop down at the top to select feature pattern that I saw in your screen shot.
Now it works:
