What does reclassifying a session do?

1. It updates the session metadata and may change where in TruMedia the session is found. For example, changing a scrimmage to a pitching session will move the session to the practice site. 

2. It allows V3 sessions that aren’t shaped like games to get fully processed. For example, if there’s a V3 Adhoc session that doesn’t follow game rules. It will need to be marked as a Live BP to be fully processed.

3. It removes metadata from pitches within the session if they don’t apply to the final session type. 

   1. For example, if a scrimmage session is changed to a pitching session, the “Batter” will get set to a placeholder batter within the TruMedia system called “Unknown Away Batter”. 

How much time does a session override take to process?

• Session overrides are processed every hour. It may take up to 10 minutes after a session override process finishes for the data to be updated on the site.
