Login session expires after ~1-2 days, requiring token re-entry
First of all, great work on this app — it looks and works really well!
However, I’ve noticed an issue with authentication persistence. After logging in with my token, the app keeps me logged in for about a day or two, and then I’m prompted to enter the token again. This happens repeatedly and makes the experience a bit inconvenient, as the login isn’t being remembered long-term.
Steps to reproduce:
-
Log in using a GitHub token.
-
Use the app normally.
-
Return after ~24–48 hours.
-
App requires entering the token again.
Expected behavior: The app should persist the login session long-term and not require frequent re-authentication.
Actual behavior: Login expires after ~1-2 days and the token must be provided again.
Additional context: If the short session duration is intentional, it would be helpful to have an option to extend the session or securely remember the token.
this seems like an issue with tokens in Portainer themselves - are you sure they are valid after that period?
