link retail sale with return on api

reports

I have noticed that the Sale API returns all transactions including refunds. However there doesn't appear to be a way of linking the original sale with the corresponding return. 

It seems it is possible since if I look on Lightspeed I can see the original sale ID on the return.

Where is this link on the API? 

Thanks

@reports: There's no direct link between the 2 sale records. All refunds in Lightspeed Retail are at the line item level. The SaleLine.parentSaleLineID points to the original SaleLine. You can use that to find the original sale:

GET /API/Account/X/Sale.json?load_relations=["SaleLines"]&SaleLines.parentSaleLineID=Y

Okay great. Thanks!
