Hey, i know it is not recommended but i tried setting the ACCESS_TOKEN_VALIDITY to 1 year (31536000 seconds) but for some reason it created the access token with expiration of 17 days.
I also tried setting it to 5 minutes (300) and it worked correctly.

So i was wondering is there a max time possible for the access token expiration?

hey <@480348401892982784> there is no limit like that. Are you sure you calculated one year correctly?

ye i checked the number 31536000 multiple times

but if u say there is no limit i guess ill look at it again

the limit on the core is 86400000 seconds (which is 2.7 years)

can you paste the value of sAccessToken? And also the set-cookie header in the response - what expiry does that have?

i just tried to increase it to 33536000 and got a lower expiration than 31536000

actually it gave me an expiration in the past
