Best method for wallboard use

[dshearon]

In the past we have used the login tokens from the Backend API URL module in order to access pages on our wall board displays. With the latest update we are now receiving "Session Timed Out" on all of the wall boards and the option to obtain the login tokens is no longer available.

What is the recommended method for accessing a URL without the need to supply credentials. The URL below is the method we used in the past.

You have several options. You can re-enable the backend ticket from Admin -> System Settings -> Backwards Compatibility Tab

Or

You can also change the session timeout under Admin -> System Settings -> Security

I enabled insecure logins and am still getting the same message. We have also lost the option to view settings for the backend API component so I have no way to grab new tokens.

I also tried setting the timeout to zero and rebooted the server. We are still getting the session timeout issue when using a token that was previously active.

If you enabled insecure login, you can click your username in the upper right and create a new Insecure Login Ticket for the user
