Instance Data Help

Hi guys,

I am completely new to the forums and only started looking at WoW addon development yesterday. Apologies if this post is in the wrong place.

Lua is new to me but I am familiar with other programming languages.

Ultimately, I am trying to develop an addon that does the following:
* Detects when the player enters a new zone, discovers what raids/dungeons are in that zone and (eventually) display a window that tells the player what uncollected transmog there is to farm in the those dungeons/raids.

So far I've just been getting familiar with the WoW API by printing stuff out from /reload - not going near UI yet.

I've been using this API reference: https://wowwiki.fandom.com/wiki/World_of_Warcraft_API

I can print out details about raids that the player is currently locked into but I'm struggling to find useful functions that provide info about the raids/zones.

Any pointers?

Thanks
