OIDC token times out too quickly on web client

[sarg3nt]

We have Headlamp working with OIDC and Azure but are running into the issue of the token expiring far too quickly. My Azure team tells me this is usually a setting in the app initiating the request.

I also found closed ticket #209 where @joaquimrocha talks a little about this.

if you have access with your token throughout the navigation in Headlamp but the problem is apparently a timeout when using the token, maybe increasing the tokens' lifespan will help. In KeyCloak this is done in the settings of the client you are using, under "Advanced Settings > Access Token Lifespan".

But I do not know what he means by "the client" Maybe the windows version of Headlamp?

Is there a way to set this in the Helm chart?

I think that comment was about KeyCloak. If you are using Azure, I think something different needs to be done.
Adding @ashu8912 and @yolossn should they know more here.

Hi all, any update on this?

[sarg3nt]

@ashu8912, @yolossn and @joaquimrocha any update on this. Is this something we need to investigate in our Azure setup or is this an issue in Headlamp?

[yolossn]

@sarg3nt sorry for the late response. May I know if you are using Azure AKS OIDC setup working with Entra ID or AAD?
