SOAP Login User questions

Squiz Matrix Support
1

I am new to using the SOAP server and SOAP in general, so I have a few questions about the LoginUser method.


I have it working and receive the return string with the session id, but I am wondering, how long does that keep my user logged in for? Or do I have to control this on the side that is making the SOAP calls?



If it does keep my user logged in, then how can I allow them to logout or break the session?



Thanks everyone for helping a SOAP newbie.

Unfortunately, it looks like once the URL is authenticated, it cannot be used again to authenticate. Not sure why thou. Maybe it might need a logoutUser() method developed? Without any testing I cannot tell much more.



Sorry Nic :slight_smile:

Do you know if matrix keeps that user logged in forever?

Once they login with that special session, it becomes a regular session and the session timeout rules kick in like a regular user.
