← WoW API < GetSpecializationRole

Returns the role a specialization is intended to perform.

local 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.

Notes

• 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.
