Expression method runs the given expression and returns the result of the calculated expression formatted as json. Each run is stored to a calculation session, and the same session can be continued in the next expression run. This way, for example initialized variables are available in the next run. Calculatation sessions are maintained in the server memory and dropper latest after 10 minutes if not used.

  • CancelEarlierQueriesWithIdentifier (boolean): Same as in [[Web_API:_Expression/query#Properties/api/expression/query|]].

Example

This example runs an expression in the Model context and show model id and name. It also assumes that there is a variable variable1 available in the calculation session.

{
  "contextType": "Model",
  "expression": "`${variable1}: ${Id}: ${Name}`",
  "sessionName": "UserSession1",
  "modelId": 123
}
