Feature released in SummitAI Platform (Denali SP3)

What's New?

To simplify the license availability of SummitAI, when the application's browser or browser tabs are closed abruptly without logging out, then currently user logout happens only based on the Session timeout is configured.

Since the application logout was dependent on the session timeout, a duplicate pop-up was displayed for End-users, if they login before session timeout, and for the Analysts, the license was occupied till the session timeout.

Now, based on the following configuration, the system will log out the users as soon as they close the browser (in less than 5 mins).

Update the Config key in the Web.config file to: 

  • Enable logout functionality after the browser is closed abruptly, using the following config key. 

<add key="App:LogoutonBrowserClose" value="True"/> 

  • Enable Redis cache for logout functionality, using the following config key.

<add key="App:Caching" value="True" />  

<add key="App:IsRedisEnabledForBrowserClose" value="True"></add>

Note:

  • By default, this functionality is not enabled. Need to raise a request to support team to enable this feature. Config key details are mentioned above.
  • If you choose load balancing environment, then you must set the Redis caches to "True" and Redis DB connection string must be configured.
