Hi Hakeem, thanks for reaching out. I have a few follow-up questions for you while I work on filing a bug ticket:

  1. Were the session props blank on open of the Designer or did they appear to clear sometime after the Designer was already open, for example, after saving the project?
  2. Did all session props dissappear or only custom session props? Only props with bindings?
  3. Did the props dissappear on the Gateway or just in this one Designer? Did the session props reappear after closing and reopening the Designer?

Hi @cconnor , thank you for the quick replay
please find the below answers for your questions

  • Were the session props blank on open of the Designer or did they appear to clear sometime after the Designer was already open, for example, after saving the project?
    Initially, I had created several session custom properties and successfully bound them to some components. Everything was working fine. However, after some time spent working on other views (not involving these session custom properties), I noticed that the project was no longer behaving as expected in the browser. Upon checking the Gateway logs, I saw errors indicating that certain session custom property names were missing from the script attributes. Interestingly, the custom properties still appeared in the Designer, but when I attempted to rebind them to a component for testing, they were no longer available—only one previously created session custom property was visible.
  • Did all session props disappear or only custom session props? Only props with bindings?
    Only the custom session properties disappeared. These properties were not bound to anything at the time.
  • Did the props disappear on the Gateway or just in this one Designer? Did the session props reappear after closing and reopening the Designer?
    The custom session properties did not reappear after closing and reopening the Designer. I had to manually recreate them, though I’ve kept the number of session custom properties limited this time.

Thanks
