Hey folks,

I need to do some gateway tag event scripting, and in doing so need to reference the active user at a given terminal. I know I can get the active user via message, or create a table to store all active client sessions, but I am curious if the information in this gateway webpage is exposed anywhere. The gateway clearly already has all the information I need, but I come up short in trying to find it. Is my best bet to just recreate this using other scripting?

Thanks in advance!

hi  
system functions already have what you need

While that function is new to me, I don't think it solves the issue of wanting to be able to access all of the client information at the gateway scope.

Edit: Ahh, this one appears to do it.
