sessionTimeout

The sessionTimeout property sets how long a session can remain inactive before the SDK starts a new session. The value is specified in seconds. The default is 1800 (30 minutes).

Syntax

Set sessionTimeout on the shared tracker:

PiwikTracker.sharedInstance()?.sessionTimeout = seconds

[PiwikTracker sharedInstance].sessionTimeout = seconds;

Parameters

• sessionTimeout (number, seconds)
  The inactivity period before the SDK starts a new session. When this amount of time passes without tracked activity, the next event starts a new session. Default: 1800 (30 minutes).

Examples

To set the expiration time to 60 minutes (60*60 seconds):

PiwikTracker.sharedInstance()?.sessionTimeout = 60 * 60

[PiwikTracker sharedInstance].sessionTimeout = 60 * 60;

Notes

• The Piwik PRO backend can also start a new visit when events are more than 30 minutes apart. If you change this value, make sure the client and server use compatible session settings.
