User basics
Learn about the key concepts and terminology that provide the foundation for the 1010data Insights Platform.
- Versions
  The 1010data Insights Platform is available in both a stable production version of the system (Prime) and a version that provides access to the latest features (Beta).
- Sessions
  A session in the 1010data Insights Platform is an established period of communication between a user and the system. A single user ID can only have one session active at a time.
  - Obtain a one-time token
    If your organization uses single sign-on (SSO), you may need to obtain a one-time token to use client tools, such as DataBlazer.
- Workspace
  The workspace is an individual instance of the 1010data Insights Platform user interface.
- Virtual memory
  The quantity of data that your session can handle at the same time is determined by the amount of virtual memory assigned to your user ID.
- Rows and columns
  Within the 1010data Insights Platform, you will manipulate rows and columns to view your data and perform new computations to gain further insight into your data.
- Data types and display formats
  Data types govern how data is stored internally, and display formats control how that data is displayed.

Obtain a one-time token

If your organization uses single sign-on (SSO), you may need to obtain a one-time token to use client tools, such as DataBlazer.

To obtain a one-time token:

Depending on whether you are a member of one of two special groups, sso_api_access or one_time_token, do one of the following:

Option	Description
You are a member of one of the two special groups.	From the workspace menu, select Session > Get One-Time Token.
You are not in one of these special groups.	From the Object Manager, run `default.gui.components.ott`.

A one-time token appears as a long string of letters and numbers.

Copy and paste the one-time token into your client application within the next 300 seconds.

When you use the one-time token in the client application, it returns a session ID and an encrypted password. You can then use the session ID/encrypted password for the remainder of the session.
