how to prevent logout for a 24/7 display application

[daveatkins]

We have a dashboard which shows current status, wait times/etc. and is refreshed every 20 minutes. The requirement is to display this dashboard on a big monitor 24/7 for the whole room. How can this be configured so that the app is never logged out and is always current? So nobody would have to go bump a mouse or anything and it could be left unattended for days and weeks at a time?

have you tried installing any chrome extension that does an auto refresh of the page? ..

We have the same problem. Did you find the answer?

so far...it is just working as-is. if it fails, our plan is to use a script on the PC to click it every few minutes. We configured the pc to have a special auto-logon user, for Edge browser to auto start, and to have the dashboard as its default page. So right now...if there is a problem, we can tell people on site to power cycle the box and it should come back ready.
