Twitter bootstrap – bootstrap accordion trigger open/close from within

I am trying to close a bootstrap panel from clicking a button nested inside. I know its possible, just cant reach the scope.I have calling the collapse class, I have tried showing and hiding it–any ideas?

$( "#button1" ).click(function() {
//close accordion 1 and open accordon 3
  $("#collapseTwo").collapse();
  $("#collapseThree").CollapseIn();
});

    You can try this:

    $( "#button1" ).click(function() {
  //close accordion 1 and open accordion 3
  $("#collapseOne, #collapseThree").collapse('toggle');
});

    Here is the fiddle.

    OR 

    <a data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseThree" id="button1">Learn more.</a>

    I went further into the collapse comparing to the preview answers and found out:
    here are some more methods inside the collapse event provided in jQuery
    toggle, show, hide, setTransitioning and dispose. But i have no idea what is it the two last.

    enter image description here

    User them as the second parameter in the event $(`#id`).collapse('show').

    More over i solved much more complex task:
    I had siblign components which are separated and dont know about each other (two form sets and submit button, see the pic).

    enter image description here

    I put a custom event trigger in the submit button

        onSubmitHandler = (e) => {
      e.preventDefault();
      $(window).trigger(EVENT_SET_EXPEND_BEFORE_SUBMIT)
...

    and added custom event listener to set components to expand them when the button is clicked (to improve user experience)

    function (props) {
  function onExpandSet(e) {
    $(`#id`).collapse('show')
  }
  $(window).on(EVENT_SET_EXPEND_BEFORE_SUBMIT, onExpandSet);
}
