Sessions and Staying Signed In

How long a session lasts

You can stay signed in for up to 90 days. Behind the scenes there are two parts: a short-lived access pass that lasts one hour, and a longer sign-in that lasts 90 days. When the one-hour pass runs out, Oris Work renews it silently using the longer sign-in, and issues a fresh 90-day sign-in each time. As long as you come back within 90 days, you should never see the login screen.

Leaving a tab open

If a tab sits idle for more than an hour, the next action it takes is retried after an automatic renewal, so you normally do not notice. If renewal is not possible, the page asks you to sign in again.

Sign out

• Click "Sign out" in the top bar, or
• Go to Settings and use the sign-out button in the Danger Zone card at the bottom.

What ends a session early

• More than 90 days without using the app.
• Clearing cookies or site data, or using a private window that is closed.
• An admin deactivating your account. This takes effect within about a minute on your next request.
• Your membership in the current workspace being removed. On renewal you fall back to your home workspace if you still have access to it.
• A security safeguard: if an already-used sign-in is presented a second time (for example, a copied cookie used from another device), all sessions in that chain are closed and everyone must sign in again.

Extra sign-in steps

• If you have two-factor authentication on, sign-in asks for a 6-digit "Authenticator code".
• Admins can require 2FA for everyone from Settings → Two-Factor Authentication ("Require 2FA for all members"). Members who have not enrolled are sent to set it up after signing in.
• You can also sign in with Google, Microsoft or ORIS Identity from the login screen.

Common problems

• You keep being signed out — your browser may be blocking or clearing cookies. Allow cookies for the site and try again.
• You see "Your session expired" — see the Session Expired article.
