Seg2Cat 2.8.1 not working with low variables 2.6.1 on EE 2.10.1

Using low variables 2.6.1 and Low Seg2Cat 2.8.1 on EE 2.10.1
If i use Low Seg2Cat in templates, its working fine, but its not working inside low variables, it simply returns the variable like so for example: {last_segment_category_parent_id}

   It's a parse order issue. You can try a couple of things:
   
   - Set the Early Parsing stage in LV to 'Yes, before Snippets';
   - change the priorities of the LV and seg2cat extensions in the database; make sure LV has a higher priority than seg2cat;
   - Use the Parse syntax in LV and use preparse to parse the var (recommended)
   
   

   {exp:low_variables:parse var="my_var" preparse: last_segment_category_parent_id="{last_segment_category_parent_id}"}

   As amazing and quick as ever!
   Parse syntax did the trick.
   
   Thank you Sir!
