Managing sessions

For information about IG sessions, see Sessions. Change IG session properties in the following ways:

Mode To change the session properties

Mode	To change the session properties
Stateless sessions in standalone mode and web container mode	Configure the JwtSession object in the route that processes a request, or in its ascending configuration. For example, define the `cookie` property to configure the IG session name. `{ "name": "JwtSession", "type": "JwtSession", "config": { "cookie": { "name": "MY_SESSIONID" } } }`
Stateful sessions in standalone mode	Change the `session` property in `admin.json`, and restart IG. For example, add the following lines to `admin.json` to configure the IG session name: `"session": { "cookie": { "name": "MY_SESSIONID" } }`
Stateful session in web container mode	Change the configuration for the session cookie in the container, and restart IG. For example, add the following lines in Tomcat’s `/path/to/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml` to configure the IG session name: `<session-config> <cookie-config> <name>MY_SESSIONID</name> ...`

Stateless sessions in standalone mode and web container mode

Configure the JwtSession object in the route that processes a request, or in its ascending configuration.

For example, define the cookie property to configure the IG session name.

{
  "name": "JwtSession",
  "type": "JwtSession",
    "config": {
      "cookie": {
        "name": "MY_SESSIONID"
    }
  }
}

Stateful sessions in standalone mode

Change the session property in admin.json, and restart IG.

For example, add the following lines to admin.json to configure the IG session name:

"session": {
    "cookie": {
      "name": "MY_SESSIONID"
    }
  }

Stateful session in web container mode

Change the configuration for the session cookie in the container, and restart IG.

For example, add the following lines in Tomcat’s /path/to/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml to configure the IG session name:

<session-config>
  <cookie-config>
    <name>MY_SESSIONID</name>
...
