    Before you begin

    Note:
    • The kiosk device automatically maintains the session before it times out. The session timeout value can be configured in the glide.ui.session_timeout property.
    • The kiosk header contains the session refresh API; ensure that you do not remove or replace the kiosk theme or the kiosk header.

      For information about customizing the kiosk header, see Customize the kiosk header.
