Issue

  • How is a unique session interpreted?

Environment

  • Analytics Cloud
  • Liferay DXP

Resolution

  • The user sessions have a window of 30 minutes since the first event has been sent when a user accesses DXP. In this situation, any event that is sent, after 30 minutes from the first event, will be considered in a new user session.
  • If you look at the request payload sent to Analytics Cloud, you will see a property called userId, this information is used to create the session.
    This userId, is also stored into the Browser Local Storage, so if you open a new tab and access DXP, it will use the same userId.
  • The user session belongs to a single day. So if there is a session open, it will be refreshed after 00:00h.
