Hi @care , welcome!

Do you mean the “exp” claim?  
If yes, then unfortunately you won’t get rid of it. This is the limitation of the [registered claims](https://community.auth0.com/t/delete-standard-claims-of-idtokens-from-actions-rules-parity/115245) that can not be modified / deleted.

> - a subset of OIDC and other registered standard claims or claims used internally by Auth0 cannot be customized or modified

Best you can do in this case is to increase the access token [life time](https://auth0.com/docs/secure/tokens/access-tokens/update-access-token-lifetime) via Auth0 dashboard.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
