Inactivity timeout

Anonymous — Wed, 07 Apr 2021 09:45:35 GMT

Hi all,

After just using the report for 5-10 min I get this error on my embedded report.

I think this is an inactivity timeout issue. Can anyone help on this? How can I increase the timeout period or if I can simply refresh the token automatically once it timesout.

Regards,

Himanshu

I have a report with sql server as my source(import mode) and I've embedded the report to my current running application. But after like say 10 min the report gets time out and show the error thats in the screenshot.

I dont understand how to rectify this issue. Please guide.

I think it has to do with the embed token timeout but not sure how to check that and where.

Hi @Anonymous,

AFAIK, get embed token API will also provide the expiry date time in the response results.
In my opinion, I'd like to suggest you do add a global variable to store the token and expired DateTime.
Then you can modify get token processing to check the variable and switch to get the current token or invoke the API to generate token.
