PDF - End Session
Declaration
<AMPDF ACTIVITY="end_session" SESSION="text" SAVETYPE="text (options)" DESTINATION="text" />
Description: Ends a session previously created by a Create session activity.
Practical Usage
Sessions typically represent a combination of steps that are used to complete a specific process. Creating sessions enables you to build and organize more customized tasks. Additionally, sessions can eliminate redundant entry of identical properties that may be required by several activities. This activity ends a session in which other activities are currently linked to.
