​
What this is for

Settings → Console groups two per-user dashboard preferences: Session timeout (auto-logoff on inactivity) and Timezone (how timestamps are rendered across the dashboard).
Both settings are stored in your browser’s local storage. They apply per user, per device — they do not roam across browsers and do not affect other users in your organization.
The page has two tabs: Session timeout and Timezone.

​
Session timeout

Auto-logoff on inactivity. Card is titled Auto-Logoff with help text “Automatically log out after a period of inactivity to protect your account.”

​
Options

FieldNotes
Enable auto-logoffToggle. Default off.
Timeout durationDropdown shown when the toggle is on. Options: 30 minutes, 1 hour, 5 hours, 24 hours.

​
What triggers a timeout

Any mouse movement, keystroke, or scroll resets the inactivity timer. When it runs out, you’re logged out automatically.

​
Warning dialog

Two minutes before logout, a dialog appears with the message “You will be automatically logged out in {MM:SS} due to inactivity.”
  • Stay Logged In — resets the timer.
  • Log Out Now — ends the session immediately.

​
Timezone

Card is titled Display Timezone with help text “Choose the timezone used to render timestamps across logs, traces, analytics, and audit views. API queries always use UTC.”

​
What it affects

Timestamps shown in:
Stored data always uses UTC. The timezone setting is presentation-only — it re-renders timestamps but does not change what is queried or recorded.

​
Options

  • Dropdown with System default (detected timezone) at the top plus a curated list of common timezones (UTC, major US, EU, APAC, etc.).
  • If your system timezone isn’t in the curated list, it’s still shown as the system-default option.
  • A preview line renders the current time in the selected timezone with its abbreviation, e.g. 2026-04-17 14:23:45 (EDT).
  • Default: system timezone (resolved via the browser’s Intl.DateTimeFormat() API).
