(A3 1.14) Use BIS_fnc_returnParents if a parents' collection of the given entry is needed.
[configFile >> "CfgVehicles" >> "Land_Atm_02_F", true] call BIS_fnc_returnParents; // return: ["Land_Atm_02_F", "House_Small_F", "House_F", "House", "HouseBase", "NonStrategic", "Building", "Static", "All"]
Not all entries have parent, and please differ parents from path.
inheritsFrom (configFile >> "CfgUIColors" >> "IGUI" >> "Presets" >> "PresetA1" >> "Variables"); // return: Nothing
