> FYI, by default, Nextworld sessions time out after 10 hours. The maximum session length is 12 hours, minimum is 1 hour, and is configured at the tenant level by Nextworld administrators. Please consider submitting a ticket requesting an increase to 12 hours for the Environment(s) where you are seeing an 8 hour timeout.

What about the tokens used for authentication for API calls? I know those don’t last an hour.
