Hi, I have a problem in exchange 2019 on-premise environement. I configure owa session timeout using bellow methods but none of them not working at all.
1- Set-OrganizationConfig -ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutInterval 00:5:00
2- Some regisistery key in server
any solution?
Hi Hossein,
Can you check if you have enabled it via this command?
Get-OrganizationConfig | Fl -ActivityBasedAuthentication*
If not set it to Enabled set-OrganizationConfig -ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled $true

Thanks Jimmy for your reply but I configured that previously. This is my exchange output for Get-OrganizationConfig | Fl -ActivityBasedAuthentication* but when users log in to OWA with their browsers, they never logged out after even 30 minutes!!
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled : True
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutInterval : 00:05:00
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutWithSingleSignOnEnabled : True
I restart IIS after changing interval.
Do you have any idea?
Just checking if all the Exch Servers are patched and on the same levels? Any other plugins or extensions on the browser try incognito mode and test.
If this does not work I will suggest you to raise a call with Microsoft.

The Set-OrganizationConfig cmdlet is used to set the Activity-Based Authentication Timeout for OWA. For detailed syntax, see the TechNet article Set-OrganizationConfig.
Yes, I know what is their syntax and it configured in my org.
As I explained before the problem is, this configuration does not work in my organization.
This is my org config:
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutEnabled : True
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutInterval : 00:05:00
ActivityBasedAuthenticationTimeoutWithSingleSignOnEnabled : True
but when users log in to owa, their session signed out after almost 8 hours instead of 5 min.
