Does anyone know if there is a user session timeout? I mean users that are using my app…do they get logged out every so often when their session times out. If so, does anyone know what the time out length is?

I don’t know if there is a specific timeout. Occasionally I may have to sign into an app again after a few months or so. At most, you can adjust the settings for cookies from Always to Ask User. If a user does not set their cookie then they will be signed out after each session.

You have seen this already, but the cookie apparently expires every 14 days. You would want to vote on a feature request.
