The session ID. The Application Express engine uses the session ID to fetch session state from the database. Oracle Application Express assigns new session IDs during authentication processing, records the authenticated user's identity with the session ID, and continually checks the session ID in each page request's URL or POST data with the session cookie and the session record in the database.
WARNING:
Do not enter the session ID when you access an interactive report URL. Entering information beyond the page ID displays an error.See Also:
