To delete one or more of the sessions in the table of sessions:

  1. Select the checkboxes for the sessions you want to delete.
  2. Click Delete Selected Sessions.

The page will update to show a confirmation message, and the selected sessions will be removed from the table.

Creating a Session

When you are viewing the CodeSonar Web GUI in a web browser, a session is automatically created for you: a user session if you have signed in and an anonymous session otherwise.

The Create Session form is provided so that you can explicitly create sessions to use in automated contexts such as continuous integration or nightly scripts. In particular, you can use the bearer token associated with an explicitly-created session to perform bearer authentication for CodeSonar operations.

  1. Scroll down to the Create Session form.
  2. Specify a suitable Expires value for the session.
    The value must be consistent with a date format string in the hub Date Parse Formats or Relative Date Formats list.
  3. Add a brief Note to remind yourself what this session is for.
  4. Click Create Session.

    The page will be reloaded.

  5. IMPORTANT: Make a note of the Bearer Token. You will need this for bearer authentication.
    Once you refresh or navigate away from this page there will be no further opportunity to view the token.

The properties for the new session will be set as follows.

Bearer Token A new, unique value.
Expires As you specified in the Create Session form.
ID A new, unique value.
Keep Alive? False
Note As you specified in the Create Session form.
Overflow? False
Precious? True
Pool noninteractive
Session User The user associated with this User Sessions page.
