### User Sessions
|
||||
|
||||
Superset uses [Flask](https://pypi.org/project/Flask/)
|
||||
and [Flask-Login](https://pypi.org/project/Flask-Login/) for user session management.
|
||||
|
||||
Session cookies are used to maintain session info and user state between requests,
|
||||
although they do not contain personal user information they serve the purpose of identifying
|
||||
a user session on the server side.
|
||||
The session cookie is encrypted with the application `SECRET_KEY` and cannot be read by the client.
|
||||
So it's very important to keep the `SECRET_KEY` secret and set to a secure unique complex random value.
|
||||
|
||||
Flask and Flask-Login offer a number of configuration options to control session behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
- Relevant Flask settings:
|
||||
|
||||
`SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY`: (default: `False`): Controls if cookies should be set with the `HttpOnly` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
`SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE`: (default: `False`) Browsers will only send cookies with requests over
|
||||
HTTPS if the cookie is marked “secure”. The application must be served over HTTPS for this to make sense.
|
||||
|
||||
`SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE`: (default: "Lax") Prevents the browser from sending this cookie along with cross-site requests.
|
||||
|
||||
`PERMANENT_SESSION_LIFETIME`: (default: "31 days") The lifetime of a permanent session as a `datetime.timedelta` object.
|
||||
|
||||
- Relevant Flask-Login settings:
|
||||
|
||||
`SESSION_PROTECTION`: The method used to protect the session from being stolen. [Documentation](https://flask-login.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#session-protection)
|
||||
Default: "strong"
