How do I set the login-token cookie expiration for AEM?
This token affects the timeout for the session for default AEM authentication (token authentication) and SAML-based authentication.

Resolution resolution

Solution
For more documentation on the token configuration, see the  on Apache.org.

  1. Go to http://aem-host:port/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.security.authentication.token.TokenConfigurationImpl and log in as admin.

  2. Edit the value of the token configuration:

    1. Token Expiration=Set this to desired timeout value in milliseconds (for example 3600000 would be 1 hour)

    2. Token Length=8

    3. Hash Iterations=1000

    4. Hash Salt Size=8

      Note: Ìý°Õ³ó±ðÌý default token expiration time  for AEM is 43200000 ms (12 hours).

  3. Once you edit the  TokenConfiguration  from the OSGI console, the file /apps/system/config/org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.security.authentication.token.TokenConfigurationImpl.config is created in the JCR repository.

  4. Go to http://aem-host:port/crx/de/index.jsp.

  5. Browse to and open this file /apps/system/config/org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.security.authentication.token.TokenConfigurationImpl.config.

  6. If the field  passwordHashAlgorithm  exists in the file, then remove that line and save.

    For example, your file might look like this:

    code language-none 
    passwordHashIterations=I"1000"
tokenExpiration="3600000"
tokenLength="8"
passwordSaltSize=I"8"
