Hi @Ranjith Puthukkara​ ,

 

Session Variables are used when you want to preserve connections to Excel, DLLs, Terminal Emulators etc across various bots.

 

We usually Modularize bots to make it easier to maintain and reuse, and when the operations to be performed on any of these applications are more, using Sessions helps us split tasks up among several bots, making our work a lot easier.

 

Here is a list of all the Applications which Automation Anywhere has provided Session Variables on:

This list will only grow, and I would recommend playing around with them, just to get a feel for them.

 

Kind Regards,

Thanks for the reply​
