Property
Sessions contain huge numbers of data and properties. A user input is a property, as is the name of a triggered flow, or the contents of a set variable, to name a few examples. In other words, properties are the basic queryable elements of session logs and a fundamental part of each query.
The properties that you can query are:
- Standard properties (of a session, transaction, or event)
- Global variables
- Flow Variables
- Metadata
- Annotations
- Request Parameters
If you use the session viewer to examine a session, the right sidebar shows a scrollable list of all the available properties for that session.
One of the standard properties belonging to sessions is beginTime, which you can use to call up sessions that ran on a particular date or range of dates. The table below shows properties that are commonly used in queries. It is by no means exhaustive.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
beginTime | The date and time the session began |
userInput | The text of the user input |
fname | The name of the flow that triggered |
vname | The name of the node (vertex) within a flow |
outputText | The text of an output node that was traversed |
answerText | The sum of all the output texts that make up the response |
