Configure session timeout duration
When your session expires due to inactivity, you will be redirected to the login page instead of the logout page, eliminating the need for manual sign-out. Before redirection, you will see the message stating, "Your session has expired due to inactivity. Please log in again to continue.".
The session timeout duration can be configured with the AllowedIdleMinutes setting, which defaults to two minutes. After this inactivity period, you will receive a warning: "You have been inactive for a while. For security reasons, we will automatically sign you out in 2 minutes. Tap the screen to stay signed in," before being redirected to the login page.
