Is there a way to know how much longer a CS object will remain in storage? For example, after I call Get Context from an ED task, is there a field I can look at that tells me how much longer it will exist? Thanks.

While adding the context, there is a "Lease Time" property that gives you the place to specify how long the data will remain. Am I understanding your question correctly?

That part I understand. What I want is if I access the element later in the workflow or another workflow. I want to know how much longer (Lease time minus elapsed time) the element will stick around.

It is not possible to check how much longer the object will exist. This information is not available for the objects as it's part of the functionality of the underlying data-grid API which does not offer this option.

FYI, when updating a Context object you can also included a new lease time parameter with the request, the will overwrite the current remaining lease time of the object.

Thanks. I was hoping to use the value in a demo application, but I can get by without it. It's good to know about the update capability, though.
