Saving changes when automatically signed out
It is possible to save changes, even when automatically signed out of an idle session.
About this task
You will automatically be signed out of LDMS if you leave a page idle for 15 minutes. When this happens, you will receive a notification that you have been signed out. If you attempt to leave the current page, you will be directed back to the sign in page. If you had unsaved changes when you were automatically signed out, those changes will be lost when you are redirected to the sign in page. This is to prevent unauthorized users from saving changes from a session that is signed out.
It is possible to save unsaved changes on a page after being logged out by signing in using another tab in the same web browser.
Procedure
- Without leaving the page with unsaved changes, open a new tab in your web browser.
- In the new tab, go to the LDMS sign in page.
- Sign in as the user with the unsaved changes.
- Close the new tab.
