Session Variable Change Not Firing Event

Hi All,

I'm trying to fire an event when a session variable is changed, but nothing seems to happen. I set up the variable and bound the changed event to a service, but when I update the session variable via a service, nothing happens. I did confirm that the variable is being updated. I'm using 8.5.3 and I found this:

Which is the same issue I appear to be having. I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed the same issue -- as I'm probably doing something wrong.

I'm trying to implement:

Option 1

Thanks!

This has somewhat been solved. I talked to a smart colleague who pointed me in a different direction. He suggested setting the variable via a mashup function and that seemed to do the trick!

Never could get the PTC example to work though.
