Clear Server Session

This post is referring to Vahana 2 (beta version). To check the document for production, please go to vDesigner-v1.0

When a user accesses a website, the server creates a session between the user and the application. The server maintains the session by assigning a unique session ID to it. This session ID manages user related data on the server or server-linked database.

When the “Clear Server Session” task is executed, it clears the session from the server.

To use the “Clear Server Session” task, you need to understand the following terminologies:

  • Server Session:- When a user interacts with a website, the server creates a session between the user and the application. The server maintains the session with a unique session ID. By using the session ID, the server stores the session-related data in the database. The session-related data includes the user’s preferences, data created or manipulated as a result of the user’s action, and others.
  • Public Page:- In an application, the public page is a page that a user can access without logging in to the application.
  • Private Page:- In an application, the private page is a page that a user can only access by logging in to application. Without using the registered user name and password, the user cannot access the private page in the application.
