On the Arlo Pro how do you know what camera triggered motion when you have your cameras nested?

You don't.... if you have A>B , A>A, B>A, B>B

I have two cameras covering my driveway and front door. Each has a rule to trigger themselves and to trigger the other camera. Whichever camera detects the motion records for 30s while the other camera records for 45s. When I go into the library and see the videos, I know that the 30s recording is the one which detected the motion

Interesting Steve... tho I have a few nested and they all just record for the same set time..

The only way i know which cam cam first is by the actual viewing and knowing the path taken ( since A starts B at the same time, there is a couple seconds of static recording on B till the person enters )
