accessing data on django sessionstore

  1. Import the necessary module: from django.contrib.sessions.models import Session

  2. Get the session key from the request: session_key = request.session.session_key

  3. Query the Session model using the session key: session = Session.objects.get(session_key=session_key)

  4. Access the session data as a dictionary: session_data = session.get_decoded()

  5. Retrieve specific data from the session: value = session_data.get('key')

Remember to handle exceptions, such as Session.DoesNotExist when querying the Session model.
