Setting session timeouts

In Admin Console, click Configuration > FileMaker Clients. Click Change for FileMaker Pro and FileMaker Go, or for FileMaker WebDirect, then choose a new session timeout. Changing the FileMaker WebDirect session timeout restarts FileMaker WebDirect and disconnects users. You can send a message from the Databases tab to warn users.

Notes 

  • Restarting FileMaker WebDirect takes several minutes. Do not make other FileMaker WebDirect changes until the restart completes.

  • The session timeout for the FileMaker Admin API and FileMaker Data API is 15 minutes and cannot be changed.
