Hello,
let me start my first questions here.
Hopefully not to stupid from a newbie.
Is it possible to configure our platform that a user will not be logged out after a while if a remote session is active?
Sometimes I´m working a while in a remote session with the Desktop Viewer and when I´m jumping back to the platform I´m logged out.
I´ve tried to change the "Access session timeout" setting but I have only read access there.
Thank you for your help!

Hi Torsten
As you are a ODC hosted Customer I believe the platform settings are changed via hosting team only. Please submit ticket to the Axeda Support.

It is a good question. I have had the same experience of working in a desktop sharing session and then finding the main UI has logged out.
The user activity timeout is a system wide parameter. A change in the time can be requested by opening a ticket with support.
We actually do some tricks to keep the child window containing the remote access applet from timing out during a session. So this is separate from the user activity timeout.
It seems the only solution is to request a longer timeout if you don't mind also making the same change for all users.
Any idea where to find this parameter? I have an on-prem deployment so looking to make this change myself.

You will need to restart tomcat in order to take it effect
Is it possible to set different timeout for different organization? Thanks.
Not as standard, I don't know if with a custom authenticator it can be done.
