What This Feature Is For

Use Stay Signed In settings to tune session persistence for browser-based applications and the Admin Portal.

Workflow

  1. Open Stay Signed In settings.
  2. Review current session lifetime and remember-me behavior.
  3. Update the policy.
  4. Validate sign-in, browser restart, and logout behavior.

Working Example

Use shorter persistence for the Admin Portal than for a low-risk customer dashboard.

Common Pitfalls

  • Applying long-lived sessions to privileged admin users.
  • Forgetting shared-device scenarios.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • If users are logged out unexpectedly, compare the configured session lifetime to cookie expiry and token lifetime.
