Windchill Login should to take to last logged out page

DKWc — Thu, 29 Jan 2026 09:31:43 GMT

Hi All,

Trying to see how make below possible.

Suppose user is working on Task page and he gets logged out from Windhcill.

When he relogin's he get back on the Task page rather than landing on home page.

Is there a way we can do it?

Thanks in advance

Hi @DKWc,

Could you please clarify what you mean by logging out?

Windchill does not support a logout functionality.

SSO enabled has timeline, if session goes idle some specified time it will log out.

Scenario:

User is on a info page of WTPart. When user login again WTPart info page should be the landing page.

We have already experienced this issue.

The timeout value has been increased.

Hi @DKWc

Your need is to configure a session hook in your SSO configuration(Shibboleth for example) so that when the user gets disconnected, then the session url is kept. We have implemented the described solution and it's working fine.

There is a section on the session hook.
