Remember me functionality for ProGet webinterface

[jw]

Hi,

is there a way to activate a "Remember me" functionality in ProGet?

An example from GitLab:

The basic idea is for the session cookie to be valid for a (ideally configurable) amount of time, so one doesn't have to log in over and over again when closing and reopening the browser.

Hi @lm,

Thanks for the feature request! I'll bring this up with the products team and let you know what they say.

Thanks,

Hi @lm ,

We've considered this over the years, but realized it'd be more engineering effort that just changing cookie duration; we'd want to track login sessions on the server side, allow them to be invalidated, etc.

It's possible, but it seems the "Remember me" function on most services (GitLab, etc.) seems to be very forgetful anyways (for security purposes), and with Integrated Windows Authentication and browsers managing passwords, it seems not so valuable for the effort.

Cheers,

Steve
