This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Get related parent post ID in custom PHP codes.

I am trying to use cred_success_redirect redirect the user back to a parent post after they have submitted a child post using a cred form. The parent post type is "Service Request" the slug is 'service-request" Here is my code:

//redirect to parent after adding address
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', 'custom_redirect',10,3);
function custom_redirect($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
    if ($form_data['id']==121)
        $parent_id = get_post_meta($post_id, '_wpcf_belongs_service-request_id', true);
        $permalink = get_permalink('$parent_id');
        return $permalink ;
    return $url;
}

The form still seems to abide by the option selected in the gui i.e. "Display a message" or "display the post" rather than redirecting per the code above. What am I missing?

Hello,

In the latest version of Toolset plugins, you need to use Types API function toolset_get_related_post() to get the parent post information, for example, replace this line of your PHP codes from:
$parent_id = get_post_meta($post_id, '_wpcf_belongs_service-request_id', true);

With:
$parent_id = toolset_get_related_post( $post_id, 'service-request' );

Please replace "service-request" with the post type relationship slug
