Configuring the Duration of the User Portal Session
By default, the session duration of the user portal is 8 hours, which means the maximum duration for a user to log in to the user portal without re-authentication is 8 hours. After the maximum session duration expires, the user logs out of the user portal and needs to be authenticated again. You can set the duration as follows:
If you use an external identity provider (IdP) as the identity source of IAM Identity Center, the duration of the user portal session is the shorter one that you set in the IdP or IAM Identity Center. For example, if your IdP session duration is 24 hours and you set the session duration to 18 hours in IAM Identity Center, your users must be authenticated again in the user portal after 18 hours.
