                  FacultyArea parentAreas = new FacultyArea() { ID = "46355449-ACD0-412C-A80F-9C91872B2EA0", ParentID = "D59B0E15-8207-439F-8034-841887AF53D8", AreaText = "Special Areas" };
                  facultyareas.Add(parentAreas);
                  faculty.Areas = facultyareas;

                }

Hi Ronak,

Please check again our help article about databinding of RadSiteMap here - note that ParentID should be set to null in order to have parent node.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
