Instance is logging out

Sudhir10 · ‎01-01-2024

Hello,

My instance is getting logout after few interval of time. And I need to login again. Can we avoid this situation where instance will not logout?

Thanks.

If it's about the out-of-the-box session timeout, you can increase this by updating system property:

glide.ui.session_timeout

It is best practice not to set this too high.

Hello @Sudhir10,

There is one system property called 'glide.ui.session_timeout' which is responsible to get the Instance Logout.

You can change the value for this property as per your requirement.

Please refer to the below Documentation for more detail:

Thank You!

Hi @Sudhir10

System property you can change but if you are in PDI but if it is a customer instance, I will not recommend to make changes with raising change and discuss with stakeholder. It may have security issue.

does this apply to SSO instances using Okta? I found other posts mentioning the glide.ui.session_timeout property only applies to SAML login, not SSO. Those were older though. If that still applies- where would one look for governance of this session expiration under SSO?
