Hi guys,

I set the idle client timeout to 15 minutes, however, this applies to all users.

I'd want to set a session timeout to 30 minutes for a certain user please let me know whether this is possible.

Thanks.

Sorry, you can not set that on a user level as far as I know.

Hi, unfortunately, Idle Client Timeout setting in NAV is managed at the service level, you cannot set different timeouts for individual users.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
