How long can I leave my session idle before I get logged out of Checkpoint?

You will be logged our after 120 minutes of inactivity.

Checkpoint will check if your session is active every 5 minutes, for up to 120 minutes where the last check will be made. After 125 minutes, you will see a time out message for 45 sec before you are logged out permanently and returned to the Checkpoint log out page.

If you return to your session during this period, this will reset the time out period.

If you exit Checkpoint without logging out, you session will automatically expire after 6 minutes.
