<p>Langflow&#x27;s <strong>Playground</strong> is a dynamic interface you can use to test your LLM-based flows in real-time.</p>
<p>You can test how a flow responds to different inputs, review and modify memories, and monitor flow output and logic.
For example, you can make sure agent flows use the appropriate tools to respond to different inputs.</p>
<p>The <strong>Playground</strong> allows you to quickly iterate over your flow&#x27;s logic and behavior, making it easier to prototype and refine your applications.</p>

<p>If your flow has an <strong>Agent</strong> component, the <strong>Playground</strong> prints the tools used by the agent and the output from each tool.
This helps you monitor the agent&#x27;s tool use and understand the logic behind the agent&#x27;s responses.
For example, the following agent used a connected <code>fetch_content</code> tool to perform a web search:</p>
<p><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" alt="Playground with agent response" src="/assets/images/playground-with-agent-423894429e02da778dc975dd1680436c.png" width="2864" height="1856" class="img_ev3q"></p>

<p>In the <strong>Playground</strong>, you can view message logs for each of your flow&#x27;s chat sessions, including timestamps, content, and senders.</p>
<p>In the <strong>Playground</strong> sidebar, find the chat session you want to review, click <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-ellipsis" aria-hidden="true"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="19" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="5" cy="12" r="1"></circle></svg> <strong>Options</strong>, and then select <strong>Message Logs</strong>.</p>

<p>Message logs break apart the <a href="/data-types#message"><code>Message</code> data</a> for each chat message.
Click any cell in the message logs to view the full contents of that cell.</p>

<p>To help debug and test your flows, you can edit or delete individual messages in <a href="#view-chat-history">message logs</a>.
For example, you might want to delete messages that you sent while testing a component that is no longer part of your flow.</p>
<p>You can also delete entire chat sessions from the sidebar: click <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-ellipsis" aria-hidden="true"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="19" cy="12" r="1"></circle><circle cx="5" cy="12" r="1"></circle></svg> <strong>Options</strong>, and then select <strong>Delete</strong>.</p>
<p>Modifying memories influences the behavior of the chatbot responses if you continue the chat session or if you preserve memories over multiple chat sessions.</p>
<p><strong>Editing message logs edits Langflow&#x27;s internal <code>messages</code> table, which is the default chat memory storage.</strong>
For more information about managing sessions and chat memory in Langflow, see <a href="#session-ids">Use custom session IDs</a> and <a href="/memory">Memory management options</a>.</p>
<h2 class="anchor anchorWithHideOnScrollNavbar_WYt5" id="session-ids">Set custom session IDs<a href="#session-ids" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to Set custom session IDs" title="Direct link to Set custom session IDs"></a></h2>
<p>Chat sessions are identified by session ID (<code>session_id</code>), which is a unique identifier for a flow run.</p>
<p>The default session ID is the flow ID, which means that all chat messages for a flow are stored under the same session ID as one enormous chat session.</p>
<p>If you need to preserve chat context over multiple flow runs or differentiate chat sessions when debugging flows, you can set a custom <code>session_id</code>.</p>
<p>Custom session IDs are helpful for multiple reasons:</p>
<ul>
<li>Separate chat sessions in situations where one flow has multiple chat sessions, such as a chatbot that can have multiple simultaneous user interactions.</li>
<li>Preserve memory when continuing a chat session across multiple flow runs or when passing context from one flow to another.</li>
<li>Differentiate activity from multiple users within the same flow.</li>
<li>Identify your own chat sessions when debugging and testing flows.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can set custom session IDs in the visual editor and programmatically.</p>
