Session Management

Location: Top-right header (clock icon + remaining time) Permission: All logged-in users

KIOPS has time-limited login sessions for security. You can check remaining time and extend your session through the session timer in the header.

What you can do here​

  • Check remaining time: See the time left until session expiry in the header. The timer changes to a highlight color when expiry is imminent.
  • Extend the session: Renew the session with the refresh / extend button next to the timer before it expires.
  • Log out: End your session manually.

Key elements​

  • Session timer: The right side of the header shows remaining time. The exact appearance may vary by environment.
  • Extend: Clicking the refresh / extend button next to the timer renews the session and resets the timer. While you are actively using the platform, the session may be extended automatically.
  • Expiry behavior: When the session expires, you are automatically logged out and redirected to the login page. Unsaved work may be lost, so extend ahead of time during important tasks.
  • Sessions ended by an administrator: when an administrator ends your session (for example by resetting your password), any window you left open shows "Your session has expired. Please sign in again." on the next action or refresh, then returns to the sign-in screen. If you see this while time still remains on the timer, an administrator ended the session.
  • Logout: Click the profile icon in the top-right corner → Logout to return to the login page.
