!CHAPTER Collection Session Storage
`const collectionStorage = require('@arangodb/foxx/sessions/storages/collection');`
The collection session storage persists sessions to a collection in the database.
!SECTION Creating a storage
`collectionStorage(options): Storage`
Creates a [Storage](README.md) that can be used in the sessions middleware.
**Arguments**
* **options**: `Object`
An object with the following properties:
* **collection**: `ArangoCollection`
The collection that should be used to persist the sessions.
If a string is passed instead of a collection it is assumed to be the fully qualified name of a collection in the current database.
* **ttl**: `number` (Default: `60 * 60`)
The time in seconds since the last update until a session will be considered expired.
* **pruneExpired**: `boolean` (Default: `false`)
Whether expired sessions should be removed from the collection when they are accessed instead of simply being ignored.
* **autoUpdate**: `boolean` (Default: `true`)
Whether sessions should be updated in the collection every time they are accessed to keep them from expiring. Disabling this option **will improve performance** but means you will have to take care of keeping your sessions alive yourself.
If a string or collection is passed instead of an options object, it will be interpreted as the *collection* option.
!SECTION prune
`storage.prune(): Array<string>`
Removes all expired sessions from the collection. This method should be called even if the *pruneExpired* option is enabled to clean up abandoned sessions.
Returns an array of the keys of all sessions that were removed.
!SECTION save
`storage.save(session): Session`
Saves (replaces) the given session object in the collection. This method needs to be invoked explicitly after making changes to the session or the changes will not be persisted. Assigns a new `_key` to the session if it previously did not have one.
**Arguments**
* **session**: `Session`
A session object.
Returns the modified session.
!SECTION clear
`storage.clear(session): boolean`
Removes the session from the collection. Has no effect if the session was already removed or has not yet been saved to the collection (i.e. has no `_key`).
**Arguments**
* **session**: `Session`
A session object.
Returns `true` if the session was removed or `false` if it had no effect.
