Saved sessions are a versatile way to share data that may include native annotations, Custom Tracks, Track Hubs, and Assembly Hubs. In these examples, text in brackets <b>"<"</b> and <b>">"</b> -indicate places where the user supplies information. Note that the bracket are not needed for the -URL, not removing the brackets will result in a 'Could not find session' error.</p> +indicate places where the user supplies information. Note that the brackets are not needed for the +URL, including the brackets will result in a 'Could not find session' error.</p> <p> You will be able to share Genome Browser sessions with the following link format:</p> <p><code>http://genome.ucsc.edu/s/<userName>/<sessionName></code></p> <p> For instructions on creating a saved session, go to the <a href="../goldenPath/help/hgSessionHelp.html#Create" target ="_blank">session user guide</a>. If you want to specify track settings in a URL directly, please read the section on <a href="#trackViz">setting track visibility via URL</a> for a complete description. </p> <p> Or if you prefer the older style, which allows you to link to different tools, you may use the following format:</p> <p><code>http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTracks?hgS_doOtherUser=submit&hgS_otherUserName=<userName>&gS_otherUserSessionName=<sessionName></code></p> <p> This longer format has the flexibility of replacing "hgTracks" with different tool names to share
