Path
A path is a series of USSD codes. A path could be a root *123#, or a series of indices *123*1*2#.
Parent Path
A parent path is a previous path of the current path. For example, currently we are in the path of *123*1*2# the parent path would be *123*1#.
Dialing parent paths are useful if you haven’t updated your directories for a long period of time. You might want to see if the index and content are equal.
Directories
Directories are a series of USSD codes. A directory could either be shallow or deep.
