Session expiry logs users out automatically after a set period of inactivity. It is configured once for the whole client space.
Who can manage session expiry?
To manage session expiry, you must be a client space administrator. To check whether you have these rights, go to your profile and open the drop-down menu: the Administration option should be present. If it isn't, you are not an administrator.
To learn more about the administrator profile in DataGalaxy, see Overview of License Management.
