Increase session timeout of UI5 Fiori apps hosted in Fiori Launchpad in SAP Cloud Platform

[former_member514516]

Hi,

Is increasing the session timeout possible for UI5 apps in Fiori Launchpad (Portal services in SCP)?

The idle time set is found to be quite short for our users.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael,

there is no option to change the timeout. But you can create your own Shell Plugin based on the documentation at:

Creating and Configuring Shell Plugin Apps

which shows an example to call a file from the Launchpad before the timeout occurs. I'm using that in our project sucessfully.

Hi. I'm trying to use the possibility but not sure what has to be added in the place of "the URL to the Component.js of the plugin".

How I can configure to call plugin from Fiori app (e.g. Goods Receipt) and where in app should I indicate it to pointing to the shell plugin's component.js file?

@shruthi.mr maybe you Can help?

Any idea what I can put in "the URL to the Component.js of the plugin"? I deployed the app and it is getting called but I'm not able to successfully ping the server. Any help?

Hi laeeq and diamar,

I would suggest you startup the Developer tools and check out the Network tab for the path that is called for the Component.js of your Shell Plugin. Then put that into the app and deploy it again.

Best regards

Could you post some sample code of Component.js of Project where you are calling plug-in component URL?

Concerns :-

1. Both the apps (Project and Plugin app) having a different URL.

2. How can we use component URL of the plugin app as a static URL or Dynamic URL.

if you post a screenshot of component of Plugin and the project file. it will be great help.

Thanks & Regards

Dear officialrajnish,

as this was implemented in a customer project I can't share the code here. If you're not able to find out the URL to call you should get someone in the project that can. It's straight forward. Just use the developer tools of the browser. I've used the static, relative URL of the Component.js file.

Best regards
Gregor

Hello,

currently we are facing the same situation. Our setting: S/4HANA-Backend (1709) with connected external Frontend Server that runs the Fiori Launchpad (FLP) and all the apps. The whole landscape is on premise.

The users use Chrome to access the FLP. Now they are complaining because their browser session times out after around 20 minutes.

I was looking hard for finding any SAP notes on that topic but to me it's still not clear:

a) Is it even possible to change that browser timeout or do we have to deal with the default?

b) If we can change it: How exactly? 😉 At the moment I have set the parameters "rdisp/plugin_auto_logout" and "http/security_session_timeout" to 3600 but the timeout still happens after about 20 minutes.

Appreciate your help - Thanks 🙂
