Global Session Settings

Britive administrators can set a global session timeout for all users, including those authenticated through external identity providers and local Britive accounts. This standardizes session management for all user types.

1. Log in to Britive as an administrator.

2. Click on System admin -> Security -> Global Session Settings.

3. Click Edit to enter the following values:

   • Global Session Timeout: Enter the desired timeout in hours (valid range: 1 to 12 hours). This setting sets the duration of user sessions before automatic logout.

   • Application Token Expiry: Enter the desired application token expiry in hours (valid range: 1 to 720 hours). Application tokens expire after this selected duration, and users need to re-authenticate to continue using the application.

   • Temporary Token Expiry: Enter the desired temporary token expiry in hours (valid range: 1 to 24 hours). Administrators must create a permission with securityadmin.temptoken.create and assign it to a non-root service identity via a policy. For more information, see Britive Authorization.

4. Click Update.
