How to make ServiceNow sessions different per tab

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to have different connections to the same SN instance in the same browser?

Hello @Jason Siegrist 

ServiceNow platform works on the principle of - one session per instance per browser, so multiple tabs confuse the session.

The widely used practice amongst Now developers and admins is - use a private browsing session window in conjunction with a normal browsing session window.

The ServiceNow platform uses the cache memory stored in the local system.  It doesn't make a distinction even if there are different session IDs active.

Thank you for that.  However I am looking for something a bit more elegant ... I found this and I am testing it now ...

Did this work for you? I see there is a "SessionBox One" now.
