Hey all
Simple question (hopefully ):
I’m aware of the various Session Time Out settings:
What I wasn’t able to configure though is a “real” Session TimeOut. I would like that when the session times out that the user is also logged-off from the dashboard and therefore redirected to the login page.
Is that somehow possible? Am I missing a particular setting for that?
We’re currently using the standard form based authentication with AD Groups behind. So no SSO yet…
Thanks,
Don

This isn’t currently the user experience. It will just show that “Your session has expired” prompt. We can certainly enhance this though.

Thanks Adam!
Yeah that would be great I think… Surely from the security point of view. I’ll open a feature request for that.

Dear @adam
Any chances that this will make it into v3.0?
I think it should be possible to configure this for the sake of security…
Thanks,
Don
edit:
Last year I also created a feature request for that. Here’s the link to it:

### Summary of the new feature / enhancement
It would be great to expand PSU en… abling the possibility to trigger a Logoff when a Session times out.
Right now only a message shows and warns the user but the session remains active.
This is not always ideal from a security point of view.
See my forum post for details:
https://forums.ironmansoftware.com/t/session-timeout-that-triggers-a-logoff/5969
### Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
Having an option in the appsettings.json would be enough I think.
Like that an admin can enable or disable the feature if needed.
Additional idea just to bring it even a step further:
- Having the possibility to enable / disable it on a **per Dashboard** / Page base
- Having the possibility to enable / disable it on a **per Role** base
Thanks a lot for taking this into consideration! :-)
