### What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?

Session Extension button should be available all time if already allowed in connection profile

### Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.

Currently the button only appears 5 minutes before session expiry both in RDP and Web sessions, that creates un-necessary loss of focus on what you are actually doing to try and time when the button will appear in order to extend the session.

### How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?

Hard to say. Sometimes I get disconnected abruptly because I forgot to check the timer at the 5 minutes mark, other times I stop what I was doing if I happened to see the timer close to the 5 min mark and wait for the ‘Extend Session’ button.

Hi Papin,

I can help you with this right now!

In an activity’s Connection Profile, you can change the “Session End Notification” value depending on when you want to see the session extension button. If you want that button available at all times, that value needs to match the “Max Duration” value.

Hope this helps!
