Lightning Console close workspace and sub tabs

Does anyone know how to close a workspace(primary) tab and it's sub tabs?
The below only returns the subtab. I need to close the primary and any subtabs. 
var workspaceAPI = component.find("workspace");
workspaceAPI.getEnclosingTabId().then(function(tabId) {
                    var enclosingTabId = tabId;
                    workspaceAPI.closeTab({tabId: enclosingTabId});
                })
Many thanks

Hi,

Thank you for the response, but that is using the .getAllTabsInfo method and closing all the tabs regardless of whether they are workspace or subtabs. I need to find the workspace ID of the currently focused subtab. In Classic there was a specific method for this .getEnclosingPrimaryTabId, but I cannot see any equivilent method to that in the WorkspaceAPI

Thanks

The below component has a button that, when pressed, closes the currently focused tab. It closes a workspace tab or subtab.

Component: 
<aura:component implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes" access="global">
    <lightning:workspaceAPI aura:id="workspace"/>
    <lightning:button label="Close Focused Tab" onclick="{!c.closeFocusedTab}"/>
</aura:component>

Controller: 
({
    closeFocusedTab : function(component, event, helper) {
        var workspaceAPI = component.find("workspace");
        workspaceAPI.getFocusedTabInfo().then(function(response) {
            var focusedTabId = response.tabId;
            workspaceAPI.closeTab({tabId: focusedTabId});
        })
        .catch(function(error) {
            console.log(error);
        });
    }
})

I hope it helps you.

I tried that to begin with, but if the currently focused tab is a sub tab that's what it closes, not the workspace tab.
I can't focus the workspace tab and then call that methosd, as I cannot find a way to get the ID for it in the first place.
