Info
Added in 5.0.4

Returns the role a specialization is intended to perform.

roleToken = GetSpecializationRole(specIndex [, isInspect, isPet])

Arguments

specIndex

number - Specialization index, ascending from 1.

Returns

roleToken

string - One of "DAMAGER", "TANK", "HEALER"; 0 if the query is invalid.

Details

• While the inspection/pet arguments are suggested by the syntax error message, the function only returns 0 when those arguments are used. FrameXML uses GetInspectSpecialization("unit") in conjunction with GetSpecializationRoleByID(id) instead.
