Start-Session
The Start-Session webject is used in creating a session. All webjects executed within this session share a common set of resources, including the identity of the calling user, the locale with which the user is associated, and open transactions.
The webject constructs an output group containing a single element with two attributes: INSTANCE and SESSION_ID. The INSTANCE and SESSION_ID attribute values should be used as the value for the INSTANCE and SESSION_ID parameters for all Windchill adapter webjects that should be a part of the session.

If a parameter is listed in the table but is not defined below, then it has a common parameter definition. For descriptions of those parameters, see Common Webject Parameters section in Adapter Webjects Overview.

GROUP_OUT
Specifies the name of the output group. If this parameter is not specified, the output group is named SESSION_ID. The webject creates a new session context and assigns a unique identifier to it.
The unique identifier is returned in an attribute named SESSION_ID of the first (and only) element of the output group. This identifier can then be specified in SESSION_ID parameters of subsequent webjects to associate those webjects with the session context created by Start-Session. This parameter is optional.
