Session layer edits for the pull/push workflow question

[voidreamer]

Hi, where can I find the callback or procedure that makes maya store the session layer edit when doing a pull/push maya reference in a stage ?
or what's the best workflow to use pull/push without embedding in the maya file ?
I'm making a tool where I want to store the maya file without embedded edits, when I use the option of Save Maya scene and USD layers I still get the session layer with the edits for the maya reference, but when I use save maya scene only I lose them when reopening as I show here:

Save Maya scene only.

Maya and Usd layers (preserves the session layer edit)

Thanks

I ended up serializing the session layer and restoring it on opening the file.
Not sure if that's the suggested approach.

is there a way to get or generate the dictionary pull edit this workflow needs by myself ?
and how to get the parent |__mayaUsd__|MayaReference1Parent|MayaReference1 ?

Sorry this went under the radar. I'll bring it up with the team.

After talking to the devs, they said that you are already doing the best approach for getting/setting the session. I'll look more into your other question.
