Hello, how can we determine whether an item in a **user’s selection** is a _ **sequence** _?

```auto
const proj = await ppro.Project.getActiveProject();
const projectSelection = await ppro.ProjectUtils.getSelection(proj);
const projectItems = await projectSelection.getItems();

for (const item of projectItems) {
    // How to check if each item is a sequence or not?
}

```

Thanks in advance! 😊

You can use `isSequence()` API for `ClipProjectItem`

```auto
const proj = await ppro.Project.getActiveProject();
const projectSelection = await ppro.ProjectUtils.getSelection(proj);
const projectItems = await projectSelection.getItems();

for (const item of projectItems) {
    // How to check if each item is a sequence or not?
    let clipItem = await ppro.ClipProjectItem.cast(item);
    if (clipItem){
        let isSequence = await clipItem.isSequence(); 
    }
}

```

Thanks for trying out UXP!
