Session Alive Extension

Almost all websites with authentication has a session timeout. If you are inactive in the website for some time then your session may be expired. You need to login again to perform any action in the website.

This extension will keep your session from expiring by reloading your website in the background. This will keep your session alive without manually reloading website even you are inactive in the website for long period of time.
Background page request
This option keep the session alive by requesting page in the background using AJAX requests, and page reload is not required and unsaved changes are not lost.
Set the Background trigger URL as your website dashboard/ welcome URL, set the Interval and save. Navigate to the Trigger URL in a New Tab and Your session is now alive!

Automatic stopping of Background page request
The rule is automatically stopped by analyzing the server response.

Foreground page reload
The Background page reload will not be enough to keep the session alive, if websites implements JavaScript idle timer in the browser itself. The Foreground page reload option can overcome this limitation.
This option keep the session alive by auto-reloading current page in the browser.

Automatic stopping of Foreground page reload
The rule is automatically stopped if the user navigates away from the Trigger URL.

Notifications
Browser Notifications can be set for the page reload success/ fail conditions.

Disable a rule
The rule can be disabled if you want to temporarily stop the rule from triggering.

Easily create and edit rules in the settings page, and also try the different options available to suit your needs.

Marfield Bautista (ID: 000000e9dad301ba) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/02/2023 Works great especially with quillbot that constantly logs me out randomly.

J (ID: 00000013f3e8596c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/19/2023 simply amazing. Thanks devs for such great tool

Jared (ID: 000000d53d7ac08a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/04/2023 Strong work!

Suri Kužomast (ID: 0000002910b1f252) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/14/2023 I can't believe I didn't think of searching for an extension like this earlier. I'm tied to some websites where if you're not active for 5-10 minutes, it logs you out. I used to log back in to the websites twenty times a day. With this extension, I only have to log in once and I stay logged in for the whole day

EPC IT (ID: 000000e4ab32e29e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/05/2022 Super simple and just keeps my various web portals alive in the background so I don't have to re-log in a million times a day when I look away for 2 minutes! Worked great and very easy to understand.
