Accessing Cube View Name from within CV Extender

When I am in a Cube View Extender BR, how can I access the name of the cube view itself? Not the Title, Page Caption, etc., but the actual name of the Cube View.

Thank you!

    Inside a Cube View Extender, the args parameter is a CVExtenderArgs object. It exposes the underlying cube view metadata via the args.CubeView property - that object is the stored cube view definition, so its .Name is the actual cube view name.

    string cvName = args.CubeView.Name;
BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, $"Cube View Name: {cvName}");
    Dim cvName As String = args.CubeView.Name
BRApi.ErrorLog.LogMessage(si, "Cube View Name: " & cvName)

    Hope this helps!

      Did you test this? I'm on version 9.0.3 and "Name" is not a member of 'CubeView'.

      Thank you!
