      I have a dynamic component that has many layers of nested components. After I select the most parent component I'm trying to write a script that will work through the levels and get the attributes of the nested components. I can't figure out how to reference to the nested ENTITY's from the selected ENTITY.

        Instances do not have their own entities - it uses the entities of its definition, so..

        ins = Sketchup.active_model.selection[0]
        entities = ins.definition.entities 
        

        will give you the entities collection for the instance.

        Hi
