# FC_GetOperationState

## [Name](#name)

:::{container}

FC_GetOperationState - get the cryptographic operation state of a session.

:::

## [Syntax](#syntax)

:::{container}

```{code}

CK_RV FC_GetOperationState(

  CK_SESSION_HANDLE hSession,

  CK_BYTE_PTR  pOperationState,

  CK_ULONG_PTR pulOperationStateLen

);

```

:::

## [Parameters](#parameters)

:::{container}

`hSession`

: [in] handle of the open session.

`pOperationState`

: [out] pointer to a byte array of a length sufficient for containing the operation state or

  NULL.

`pulOperationStateLen`

: [out] pointer to [CK_ULONG](/en-US/CK_ULONG) which receives the total length (in bytes) of

  the operation state.

:::

## [Description](#description)

:::{container}

`FC_GetOperationState` saves the state of the cryptographic operation in a session. This

function only works for digest operations for now. Therefore, a user may call

`FC_GetOperationState` without logging into the token (to assume the NSS User role).
