Workfront randomly logs me out

Sometimes during a day Workfront decides to log me out. This morning, I hadn't been online for even an hour when I found I had to log back into my tabs. Normally, I can stay logged in all day, but in the last couple weeks I'll occasionally find it's logged me out.

On an administrator level you might want to check the attached settings

I wish we still had these options but they are now gone since we moved to the unified experience and admin console.

I don't have a solution, but we are also experiencing the same across our instance. This started after the Unified Shell was implemented July 18, so seems like there could be a connection there. The WF instance URL was changed as part of this implementation, and that has caused a number of issues for our users.

The addition of United Shell has caused problems for us as well. Users are experiencing forced log-outs and very slow response times. The change to the URL structure, which I don't think was announced in advance, caused a problem with our internal controls and prevented us for 2 weeks from uploading watermarked documents (e.g., Confidential, Internal Only). That's fixed now but the slow response times and log-offs continue.

Did you happen to submit a ticket with Support?

 

We just started having this experience as well last week and I am waiting for an update from Support.

My project manager says she submitted a ticket, since several of us in my department are having this problem, but I think it's stalled out. Support needs a recording of the problem, which is a little hard to get. I'm not sure that any of my coworkers have managed to do this so far.

@kierstenkollins I'm not seeing the Settings tab in my Admin Console to where I can adjust these settings. Do you have a reference number for you ticket?
