Wikirate platform can host answers that respond to relationship questions between companies. For instance, which companies supplied company A in 2022? Relationship answers respond to such questions (metrics with metric type Relation Metric).
This example assumes you have configured your Wikirate REST client. Instructions on how to configure a client can be
found in examples/Configurations.md
The get_relationship method take as an input either the relationship answer's name or the relationship answer's
identifier.
Each relationship's name is described by the metric name (metric designer + metric title), subject company, year and object company.
