        Overview

        This page provides steps for manually controlling the session timeout expiration of a Matillion ETL instance.

        Currently, the default timeout expiration is 180 minutes, but Matillion server administrators can edit this value. For example, your organization may deem a shorter timeout expiration (15 or 30 minutes) to be best practice procedures.

        Controlling session timeout expiration

        1. SSH into your Matillion ETL instance.
        2. Locate and edit the following file: /usr/share/emerald/WEB-INF/classes/Emerald.properties
        3. Locate (or create if it does not already exist) the variable HTTP_SESSION_TIMEOUT_MINUTES
        4. The default value is 180 (minutes). Provide a new value if required.
        5. Save and close the file.
        6. Finally, restart Tomcat using the following command: sudo service tomcat restart
