Hi guys, what is the purpose of the

session_store.db

file after you run a pipeline? Should it be committed to version control? Is it necessary for Kedro to run or is there a way to configure so this file won't be created?

Someone will reply to you shortly. In the meantime, we've found some posts that could help answer your question.

Hi @Manoel Pereira de Queiroz, The purpose of

session_store.db

file is to store your kedro pipeline run locally. This is useful for Experiment Tracking on Kedro-Viz. Please have a look at these docs. You can commit it to VC if you want your local runs to be shared among other team members. This is not required by

kedro run

and you can comment out the below part from your kedro project's

settings.py

file so the file won't be created. Thank you
