Did you use “Set-OrganizationConfig” command with EMS to configure timeout? If it is, I am afraid that there are no other built-in methods to modify the timeout.
Is there any way to set OWA session timeout ? Exchange Server 2016 or 2019.

Default timeout in exchange is 6 hours. I have changed activity timeout to 5 or 10 min from EMS and also from some registry value. is there any other way to make inactive timeout in OWA ?

2022-09-22T16:22:58.737+00:00 @BenOu-MSFT Hi, I have tried Set-OrganizationConfig for activity based time and set it to 5 Min. but it didnt worked. Also tried some registry stuffs :
Set-ItemProperty “HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA” -Name PrivateTimeout -Value <timeout_minutes> -Type DWORD
Set-ItemProperty “HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchange OWA” -Name PublicTimeout -Value <timeout_minutes> -Type DWORDboth the options are in no effect. so i am searching for if any other possible solution.
