Hi Champs,

Today we will take a look at how the external authentication mode works. Enabling this setting will force the user to go to the external authentication login landing page instead of the Sitecore Content Hub login page. Below are the steps to change the settings.

Steps:

  1. Navigate to the Manage page.
  2. Navigate to Settings.
  3. Search for PortalConfiguration.
  4. Click Authentication under the PortalConfiguration.

authentication

5. Find authentication_mode under the Authentication. Set the value to Active, as shown below.

For more details on other settings options please check the old Sitecore CH version doc here.

Sitecore Content Hub Expire Time Settings

Hi Champs,

Today we are going to check two important properties of Sitecore Content Hub which could help you to resolve the issue of getting logged out.

  • ExpireTimeSpan
  • SlidingExpiration

Basically, both properties are part of Authentication within Content Hub Portal Configurations.

ExpireTimeSpan:

This property is as same as session Timeout, but the catch is this works irrespective of activity as this works on authentication cookie.
You can increase the session timeout by setting “ExpireTimeSpan” to any value in minutes up to the upper limit of 1440 minutes, the default value is 30 minutes.

SlidingExpiration:

Set this property to true, then it works whenever a request is done before ExpireTimeSpan which updates the expiration time for the authentication cookie, the default value is false.

Both of these settings should be configured under Manage->Settings->PortalConfiguration->Authentication.

The default value of the setting “SlidingExpiration” is false,

I’ve linked some documentation describing these settings here.

Keep Learning Champs!!!!!
