It should be noted: if you’re calling your script from somewhere that has [component methods](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Perspective+Component+Methods) available, calling `self.session.info.id` will give you an ID that matches the one in `getSessionInfo()`.

And if the only think you need that ID for is the session info, `self.session.info` may give you everything you need, without needing to call `.getSessionInfo()`.
