The Aggregation Session Inspector enables viewing and editing of existing sessions. The data is displayed in a table where each row represents a session, with the session data ordered in columns. It is also possible to edit the contents of the sessions, that is, to change the timeout and the values of the session variables. Aggregation Session Inspector only inspects sessions stored on disk and SQL.

Initially, the table is empty and must be populated with data using the Search Sessions dialog. When you select the Search button, the Search Sessions dialog opens where you can select which group of sessions you want to view.

Disable Read Only if content of the sessions need to be altered. Exclusive access to the repository is required to alter the sessions, meaning that if a currently running workflow is using the selected profile, the workflow needs to be stopped to be able to get exclusive access.

Disable Limit results if you want to fetch all sessions in the session index. This can be time and memory consuming Change Limit results to get fewer/more results. The total number of results is briefly shown in the status bar of the search result dialog.
