Hi,
Trying to figure out how to access sessions for a guest user.
I want to be able to save the session id and cart contents to a temporary table.
All I need to be able to do is get the session id of the user.
I have tried to use $this->EE->session->userdata[‘session_id’] but it is not returning a value. What do I need to do to be able to access this?
Cheers!

Does it work for logged-in users? To be honest I don’t think EE creates a user session for anonymous users.

I got it to work using
global $SESS
$SESS->session_id
