The following PHP code shows how to implement this getTree() function:

$storeFront = New Storefront();
$treeData = $storeFront->getTree();
?>
The following code is a sample of the array returned by the getTree() function.
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 1

page in the ordering workflow the link should refer the preview_init_form page (fromid parameter of the url).
