Overview

OTPLESS provides a comprehensive session management system designed to enhance both security and user experience. By enabling session management, developers can control the duration of user sessions, manage inactivity timeouts, validate session tokens, and revoke sessions in real-time to prevent unauthorized access.

Session management is disabled by default for all apps. To activate it, navigate to the “Session Management” tab in your OTPLESS dashboard and toggle the session management settings as needed.

​

Key Features

• Session Lifetime Control: Define the maximum duration for which a session can remain active.
• Inactivity Timeout: Set a timeout period for user inactivity, after which the session will automatically expire.
• Session Validation and Revocation: Validate user sessions to check if they are still active and revoke them in real-time for enhanced security.
• Session Details Retrieval: Retrieve comprehensive information about current user sessions, including device and location data.

​

Use Cases

Session management offers several use cases that enhance both security and user experience:

• Enhanced Security: Automatically expire sessions after a set period or due to inactivity to prevent unauthorized access.
• User Account Management: Allow administrators to revoke sessions as needed for security purposes.
• Seamless User Experience: Enable persistent sessions across devices, reducing the need for frequent re-authentication.

​

Benefits

• Improved Security: Reduces the risk of unauthorized access by controlling session lifetimes and validating tokens.
• User Convenience: Ensures users remain logged in across multiple sessions and devices, enhancing the user experience.
• Flexible Control: Offers administrators granular control over session management for enhanced security and usability.
