Managing Sessions

Learn how to organize, archive, export, and delete your music search sessions

Updated Oct 9, 2025

Session Management

Sessions are containers for your music searches. Each import creates a new session that you can manage over time.

Archiving Sessions

Archive sessions you're done with to keep your Sessions page clean:

  1. Select sessions using checkboxes
  2. Click Archive Selected
  3. View archived sessions by changing the status filter

Note: Archived sessions can be unarchived anytime.

Understanding Orphaned Tracks

The "Orphaned Tracks" session is a special system session that holds tracks from deleted regular sessions. This ensures you never lose track data.

  • You cannot archive the Orphaned Tracks session
  • You can only delete it when it contains no tracks
  • Tracks automatically move here when their parent session is deleted

Exporting Sessions

Export your session data to CSV:

  1. Use the filters to show the sessions you want
  2. Click Export CSV
  3. The CSV includes: session name, status, track counts, dates

Use cases:

  • Backup your data
  • Analyze spending patterns
  • Share session info via spreadsheet

Searching Sessions

Use the search bar to find sessions by:

  • Session name
  • Description
  • Source (URL or filename)
  • Import platform (Spotify, Tidal, etc.)

Deleting Sessions

Permanently delete sessions you no longer need:

  1. First archive the sessions
  2. Change filter to show archived sessions
  3. Select sessions to delete
  4. Click Delete Selected

Warning: Deletion is permanent. All tracks will move to Orphaned Tracks.

Reprocessing Entire Sessions

Rerun the price search for all tracks in a session:

  1. Open the session
  2. Click Reprocess Session
  3. Choose to reprocess all tracks or only errors
