Get the application session id

The session identifier represents a GAS session. When you want to find the DVM and proxy logs to troubleshoot an application, locate the session id.

When in development mode, the default ending page for a Genero Web Client for JavaScript (GWC-JS) Web application displays the session id. See GWC-JS application ended page. You can also find the session id in the application URL of the monitor pages or by viewing the HTML source page.

Example session id in a log entry:
/ua/sua/7e26fadb0c9f6939c65702fc9a1ff2a4/0

The long string, 7e26fadb0c9f6939c65702fc9a1ff2a4 in the example, is the session id. This uniquely identifies a session, allowing you to locate the relevant proxy and DVM logs for the session.

Once the application ends, the session id is no longer available in the GUI. Or if the application fails to start, there may be no session id.

In these cases, you can only consult the logs. Usually you have a unique session log for the same period as when the session ended. See Log files.
