09/19/2022, 5:56 PMHey! By default the timeout for a session is 100 days of inactivity.
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:56 PMHey.
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:56 PMBy default the session timeout is 100 days of inactivity
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:57 PMYou can change the refresh and access token lifetime in the core to change this
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:57 PMBut that change applies to all the users
l
Luca
09/19/2022, 5:57 PMBut the lifetime of access and refresh token is not 100 days
r
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:58 PMWell, access token is a few hours
rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:58 PMRefresh token is 100 days

Luca
09/19/2022, 5:59 PMreally? Then i have a problem in my web app. I have to login again every few hours
Luca
09/19/2022, 5:59 PMAfter inactivity

rp_st
09/19/2022, 5:59 PMHmm yea. That shouldn’t happen
rp_st
09/19/2022, 6:00 PMIs the refreshing happening automatically?
l
Luca
09/19/2022, 6:00 PMOkay then i will investigate this
r
rp_st
09/19/2022, 6:00 PMThe easiest way is to login, delete the sAccessToken and then see what happens when you call an API that uses verifySession
rp_st
09/19/2022, 6:00 PMIt should return a 401, and then the refresh api should be called on its own
l
Luca
09/19/2022, 6:01 PMYes but its failing. I am currently working on my mobile app, not on my web app. So i will come back to this soon.
r
rp_st
09/19/2022, 6:01 PMOkay.
rp_st
09/19/2022, 6:01 PMSo you need to see why it’s failing.
