    Does Umbraco have a unique Session value when the browser is open?

    API Questions
    Umbraco 7

    I am building a custom shopping cart and I was going to store a unique identifier in Session and also in my database for future use?

    I know I can use Session["CartId"], but does Umbraco have something else I can use and does it have something I can put in Session["CartId"]. I was just going to set this to a new Guid at first, but I noticed Umbraco creates some upfrt value when using @Html.BeginUmbracoForm.

    Is this something I can use to uniquely identify shopping carts while the browser is open? If I want to store it in the database, what datatype is recommended?

    Thanks

    I think what you're looking for is:

    HttpContext.Current.Session.SessionID

    However, storing as a Guid is another issue as I was also looking at this - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29693492/current-sessionid-convert-to-guid
