I need to hit a post request to an API service which requires a session id along with other parameters in its post request field in order to get the required information.
I am using Postman to test this API.
I would like to know how to send a 'session id' in a post request when using Postman?
I am aware of pre-request script in Postman, but I am unaware of how to use the variable in post request.

With a request open in Postman, use the Authorization tab to select an auth type, then complete the relevant details for your selected type.

Every time an Internet user visits a specific Web site, a new session ID is assigned. Closing a browser and then reopening and visiting the site again generates a new session ID.
A session is created when client calls Login API and stays active until it times out or is logged out. When the session is created, a session ID that looks like a GUID is generated and assigned to it by the server. It is returned to the client in an HTTP header called X-egain-session .
