hi @a.arranz! Have you seen this post? > [@get session id within a recipe](https://support.prodi.gy/t/get-session-id-within-a-recipe/2504/2): > > Hi! The session ID is only assigned when a user opens the app and makes a request to the server requesting a new batch of questions. There's not currently an in-recipe way to access it, because it's only available once the stream is already executing. So if you want fine-grained control like this within the recipe script, you'd currently have to use separate instances of Prodigy with different datasets, or the same dataset and sessions / annotator names / etc. set via the command line. This thre… Unfortunately since the session ID isn't assigned until execution, there's no way to access it within the recipe. However, the post outlines how to get it from separate instances of Prodigy. Hope this helps! --- _[View the full topic](https://support.prodi.gy/t/extract-session-id-dataset-as-users-are-curating-validate-curation/5753)._
