We are trying to configure longer login persistence in our production tenant and have run into a limitation.

Specifically, we want to set:

- **Idle Session Lifetime (Persistent)** → **~12 weeks**

- **Maximum Session Lifetime (Persistent)** → also **~12 weeks**

However, in our Auth0 Dashboard, the configuration UI enforces:

- Idle Session Lifetime (Persistent):  
**Must be ≤ 4320 minutes** (3 days)

- Maximum Session Lifetime (Persistent):  
**Must be ≤ 4320 minutes** (3 days)

Screenshot from our tenant:

### What we found so far

We discovered a few community posts indicating the limits would be much higher on paid plans:

- [Auth0 Session Lifetime](https://community.auth0.com/t/auth0-session-lifetime/59055)

- [Session Lifetime not logging out users](https://community.auth0.com/t/auth0-session-lifetime-not-logging-out-users/61034)

Those discussions suggest that **Developer / Developer Pro** plans can set persistent session lifetimes up to **100 days** , significantly more than the 3-day limit we see.

They also linked to this documentation:  
[https://auth0.com/docs/manage-users/sessions/configure-session-lifetime](https://auth0.com/docs/manage-users/sessions/configure-session-lifetime)  
but the docs do not specify current shows the max values anymore.

### Questions

1. **Has Auth0 recently changed the maximum supported session lifetime?**

2. If longer persistent sessions (12 weeks ~ 84 days) are still supported:

Any advice or clarification would be greatly appreciated 🙏  
Thanks!

Hi @chenchang.lew

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Thank you for posting your question. The 100-day limit for session lifetime is only available on the enterprise plan. If you are on the Developer Plan, your max settings are as mentioned by you above:

> - Idle Session Lifetime (Persistent):  
> **Must be ≤ 4320 minutes** (3 days)
> - Maximum Session Lifetime (Persistent):  
> **Must be ≤ 4320 minutes** (3 days)

Thanks!  
Dawid
