Session timeout warning

The Session timeout warning page implements a solution on how to warn users of the authenticated session timeout. The user can:

  • select a button to stay in the service and not time out.
  • select a link to sign out.

When to use this pattern​

You should use this pattern in case you need a way to time the user out when they do not do anything for 15 minutes. You should warn them after 13 minutes, which gives them 2 minutes to decide whether they want to keep using the service or not.
