Comments
A SessionID string is obtained using the StartSession function. See that topic for an explanation.
More than one SAProperty node can be supplied, in which case they are processed in the sequence in which they occur.
This requires SAXT to be installed and for SAREST to have been configured with the SAXT URL.
