Hi everyone, I have some perspective apps. I have set up the requiring authentication function for these apps. However, I figured out that a user must log in several times in the same session to continue using the functions. You can see it in the figure below. I believe it is inconvenient for the user. In a conventional SCADA application, the user just needs to log in only one time for monitoring the application. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/9/e9b61ef71e7e019ce8603293676eee40bc6906db.jpeg) Did the browser cache or the security token expires cause the issue? Because Perspective runs as a web-based application. Or I have configured some things incorrectly. I have followed this documentation [Security In Perspective](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Security+in+Perspective) to set up the authentication function. Thank you so much for your time! ---

Its possible its the inactivity setting here that automatically logs the user out [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Perspective+Project+Properties#PerspectiveProjectProperties-PerspectiveInactivityProperties](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Perspective+Project+Properties#PerspectiveProjectProperties-PerspectiveInactivityProperties) ---

@SKA thanks for your help. I will try it later.
