In general however, it isn't trivial to get access to this information without diving into the details.  That is why there is a best practice guideline that helps you managing cases where you need to cancel a timer: instead of trying to cancel the timer instance directly, you just cancel the node / sub-process that the timer is defined in, which will also cancel the timer instance. For example, if you have a boundary timer event, canceling the node that the boundary event was linked to will also cancel the timer.  Similarly, if you use a sub-process that contains the timer, completing or aborting that subprocess will also cancel the contained timer instances.
