Hi All  
Is it possible to have dedicated tags for each session? I’m building a dashboard where the user can enter some numbers and a script under ‘Project Library’ runs a calculation based on the user input. I tried creating a tag tree under ‘default’ tag provider to store the user inputs but I’m assuming they will be overwritten by each session when multiple users are trying to change the same entry.

Essentially I want to store the user inputs and run calculations which should be agnostic to number of users entering values into the same input variable. Could this be accomplished through custom session props? Open to any approach.

Cheers  
Sam

This is what session properties are for.

Thanks, Kevin, I know that was a dumb question 😅

This describes the props, but there's also a custom section in the designer for your own props
