About session variables
An access policy stores the values that actions return in session variables. A
session
variable
contains a number or string that represents a specific piece of information.
This information is organized in a hierarchical arrangement and is stored as the user's session
data. The Current Sessions report in the Access Policy Manager Reports area
displays all session variables for a session. Session variables can be useful in access policies
to achieve various results, including:
- Customizing access rules or defining your own access policy rules.
- Providing different outcomes for policies based on the values in the session variables.
- Determining which resources to assign to users (with the Resource Assign action).
