This page is used for the configuration of session control and REST API tokens. The following options are considered to be advanced and should only be changed by experienced administrators who understand the implications of changing them.
Changing these settings logs out all currently logged-in users, including the user performing the change.
Session timeout defines the amount of time after which a user session expires if there is no activity during that time. After the expiration, the user must log in again. The default value is 12 hours.
REST API access token lifetime defines the amount of time after which the access token expires regardless of activity. After the expiration, an access token can be refreshed by the refresh token. The default value is 24 hours.
REST API refresh token lifetime defines the amount of time after which the refresh token expires regardless of activity. After that, the access token cannot be automatically refreshed and the REST API authentication expires. The default value is 2 days.
