Breaking Change

Portals; Authentication; New option to "Force re-sign-in when opening a new browser tab"

A new option to "Force re-sign-in when opening a new browser tab" has been added to the Portals form, Authentication page.

NOTE: This is a breaking change this this option will be turned on by default for existing Portals.

Session options only apply when running a Portal outside of finPOWER Connect, e.g., from Web Services.

Forcing re-sign-in when opening a new browser tab means that if a user closes their browser (or browser tab) then opening another tab to a Portal URL will redirect to the sign-in form, it is not related to the Session Timeout.

WARNING: Browser behaviour such as Chrome's 'Duplicate' and 'Reopen closed tab' may not respect this setting since they preserve all of the original page's data when opening a tab.
