Overview

This node operation retrieves information about a specific session by its name. It is useful in scenarios where you need to fetch session details from a system or service that manages sessions, such as user sessions, application sessions, or communication sessions. For example, it can be used to monitor active sessions, retrieve session metadata, or validate session status.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching details of a user session by providing the session name.
  2. Retrieving session metadata for auditing or monitoring purposes.

Properties

Name Meaning
Session The name of the session to retrieve information for. This is a required string input.
Request Options Optional settings to customize the HTTP request behavior, including batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy settings, and timeout duration.

Output

JSON

  • session - Details of the retrieved session, including its properties and metadata.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key or authentication token to access the session service.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues include invalid session names resulting in not found errors, network or proxy misconfigurations causing request failures, and SSL certificate validation errors if the server uses self-signed certificates.
  • Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; increasing the timeout setting can help.
  • Batching settings need to be configured properly to avoid overwhelming the server or hitting rate limits.
