In the Node configuration window
- The SESSION DATA tab allows you to set Session Variables or modify the values of the Session Variables/Parameters.

CUSTOM LOGS
Session Params are logged upon node entry or exit to create a log either in transaction log or in Logbook. To define Log files, see Configuring Session Data and Custom Logs
If Log location is set to "Transaction log", the variable mapping step captures the value of the selected session data variable as a new custom log entry into the flow transaction log with the set logID.
If Log location is set to "Logbook" the variable mapping step records the value of session data variable into the selected logbook attribute.
