How to get results on adaptive mesh analysis like GPAD with DPF

I am trying to get results on an analysis that uses GPAD and adapts the mesh during the solve. I believe I need to first get the dpf mesh across the time points but I am having an issue getting this with the operator: dpf.operators.mesh.mesh_provider().

This will always pull the same mesh even though the mesh changes from set to set.

for i in range(1,10):
    op = dpf.operators.mesh.mesh_provider()
    op.inputs.time_scoping.Connect(i)
    op.inputs.data_sources.Connect(my_data_sources)
    my_mesh = op.outputs.mesh.GetData()
    print my_mesh.ElementCount

    Also, per the docs at 24.2 for this operator:

    time_scopingname
    (int32)
    Optional time/frequency set ID of the mesh, supported for adaptative meshes
