There are several ways to set up and use [sessions](sessions). It is recommended that you do not run a session with a single job in it.
<Admonition type="caution" title="Important">
The way sessions are started within Qiskit Runtime has changed. **By 1 April 2024**, upgrade to `qiskit-ibm-runtime` version 0.20.0 or later, or `qiskit-ibm-provider` version 0.10.0 or later. In addition, ensure you are using Qiskit version 0.45.0 or later. Starting 1 April, session calls made in earlier versions of these packages will fail.

## Set up to use sessions
Before starting a session, you must [set up Qiskit Runtime](../start/install) and initialize it as a service:

A session is a Qiskit Runtime feature that lets you efficiently run multi-job iterative workloads on quantum computers. Using sessions helps avoid delays caused by queuing each job separately, which can be particularly useful for iterative tasks that require frequent communication between classical and quantum resources.
