# Introduction
PHP 7.0 introduced a new interface called
`SessionUpdateTimestampHandlerInterface`. As of [Symfony
4.0](20201109140137-symfony_4_0) this has been added to the [PHP7
Polyfill component](20201109151215-symfony_php7_polyfill_component)
# Syntax
``` php
interface SessionUpdateTimestampHandlerInterface
{
// Checks if a session identifier already exists or not.
public function validateId(string $key) : bool;
// Updates the timestamp of a session when its data didn't change.
public function updateTimestamp(string $key, string $val) : bool;
}
```
