# Edit time-tracking session data

Sessions can be edited via the API or through a run step as seen here! [Time Tracking](/features/runs/time-tracking.md)

## Overview

There are many situations that may necessitate changing the check-in or check-out time for a given session. Use the information below to update check-in/check-out data via the API.

## Steps

#### 1) Get the session id and information

Use a query similar to this to get sessions. This one is querying for the last 5 sessions in the database, so you may want to query by user or some other parameter instead.

```graphql
{
  sessions (last: 5){
    edges {
      node {
        id
        _etag
        runStep {
          runId
          position
        }
        checkIn
        checkOut
        createdBy {
          email
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```

#### 2) Update the session data

Once you have the id and etag, use this mutation and input to modify the session data.

```graphql
mutation UpdateSession($input: UpdateSessionInput!) {
  updateSession(input: $input) {
    session { 
        checkIn
        checkOut
        id
    }
  }
}
```

```graphql
{
  "input": {
    "id": <from previous step>,
    "etag": <from previous step>,
    "checkIn": <use your own value here>
    "checkOut": <use your own value here>
  }
}
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://manual.firstresonance.io/api/examples/edit-time-tracking-session-data.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
