Limiting concurrent login sessions by role

[jyoung2119]

I am trying to figure out the best way to limit login sessions to 3 for admins and 1 for everybody else. I know there is a plugin that handles concurrent login sessions but I don't think I am able to have two separate limits like that. Has anybody had a requirement like this and if so, how did you implement it?

Hello @jyoung2119 

Follow below 👇 steps - 

1. Install the free plugin "Limit Concurrent Sessions" 

2. Set the property 'glide.authenticate.limit.concurrent.interactive.sessions' = true --> By default this property is set to false and by setting the value to 'true', Concurrent Login behavior will get activated.

3. Set the below property value to n (where n = number of sessions you want to permit per user/role and its a integer) 'glide.authenticate.max.concurrent.interactive.sessions' = 2 (In my case n = 2)

4. Once we install the above-mentioned plugin, the system will create a checkbox called 'Limit Concurrent Sessions' on the Users and Roles table. Make sure, you are going to select the checkbox to whom you want to restrict the same.

I hope this answers your query precisely.
