title: "Configure OAuth clients so that tokens expire after a set period of inactivity"

description: |-
    <p>
    You can configure OAuth tokens to expire after a set period of
    inactivity. By default, no token inactivity timeout is set.
    </p>
    <p>
    The inactivity timeout can be either set in the OAuth server
    configuration or in any of the OAuth clients. The client settings
    override the OAuth server setting.
    </p>
    <p>
    To edit the OAuth client inactivity timeout, edit the OAuth client
    object: <tt>oc edit oauthclient $clientname</tt>
    and set the top-level <tt>accessTokenInactivityTimeoutSeconds</tt>
    attribute.
    <pre>
    apiVersion: oauth.openshift.io/v1
    grantMethod: auto
    kind: OAuthClient
    metadata:
    ...
    accessTokenInactivityTimeoutSeconds: 600 
    </pre>
    For more information on configuring the OAuth clients, consult the
    OpenShift documentation:
    {{{ weblink(link="https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/openshift_container_platform/4.7/html-single/authentication_and_authorization/index#oauth-token-inactivity-timeout_configuring-internal-oauth") }}}

rationale: |-
    Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window
    of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take control of a session
    that has been left unattended.

ocil_clause: 'OAuth client inactivity timeout is not configured'

ocil: |-
  To check if the OAuth client timeout is configured, run the following command:
  <pre>oc get oauthclients -ojson | jq -r '.items[] | { accessTokenInactivityTimeoutSeconds: .accessTokenInactivityTimeoutSeconds}'</pre>
  the output should return a timeout value per client.
