	DataElementUniqueName	Gets or sets the unique name of the original data element (if there is one).
	ElementParameterLinks	Gets the element parameter links.
	ElementStructureId	Gets the ID of the structure for the underlying element.
	ElementUniqueName	Gets the unique name of the element to add.
	Id	Gets or sets the unique identifier of the grouping element.

Remarks

This structure allows the following scenarios to be handled: 1. A hierarchy or hierarchy level from an analysis structure (StructureId, UniqueName, LevelUniqueName (optional)). 2. A data element from a data cube structure (StructureId, UniqueName). 3. A hierarchy or hierarchy level attached to a data element from a data cube structure (first adding the element DataElementStructureId and DataElementUniqueName, then replacing that element with the hierarchy StructureId, UniqueName, LevelUniqueName).
