How It Works​

The Get Session node retrieves the current Windows Automation session object. When executed, the node:

  2. Verifies that an interactive desktop session exists
  3. Returns the session object as an output

Requirements​

  • An active Windows Automation session must exist
  • An interactive desktop session is required

Error Handling​

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

  • No active Windows Automation session exists
  • No interactive desktop session is available

Usage Notes​

  • The session object contains information about the current automation context
  • This node is often used in conjunction with other Windows Automation nodes that require session information
