Hi,

There are two ways to do this,they are as follows:

1)we can use a command task anywhere  in the workflow or worklet to run the shell commands.

2)In the session task,we can call reusable command task  in the pre-session post_session property to run shell commands.

                           or

we can write pre-session or post-session commands in the session.

we can use server variables and session variables in the pre and post-session shell commands, but not in the standalone command task.
