Add an extra layer of control over user security by giving customer accounts the ability to manage the duration of user sessions.

Give certain users permission to manage the duration of user sessions by assigning the permission of revoke all user sessions.

Then, enable features in the Profile, Users, and Security sections of the Builder so that users with the permission have the ability to configure and manage user sessions from the Admin Portal.

The features in the Admin Portal that the permission unlocks include the following.

• Configure session management settings
• View user sessions
• End specific user sessions
