Restoring Check-In App Access After Session Expire
Overview
This article explains how users can restore access to an event after their session has expired on a kiosk or Windows laptop. When a device remains inactive for an extended period (such as 48 hours), the system automatically expires the session for security reasons.
In such cases, users must log in again to continue accessing the event. This process helps protect event data and ensures secure access.
Step-by-Step Approach

2. Shut Down the Kiosk
- Properly shut down the kiosk after use.
- Ensure the device is completely powered off.
3. Restart the Kiosk After 48 Hours
- Turn on the kiosk after 48 hours of inactivity.
- Wait for the system and application to load.
- The user will be redirected to the login page.
4. Re-Login to Restore Access
- When the login screen appears, enter your credentials again.
- The user should successfully regain access to the Check-In App.
