Unlock Helix

If there has not been any activity detected for a defined period, Helix is locked automatically for security reasons, to keep your data safe.

Helix is automatically locked after 15 minutes of inactivity by default.

To continue using Helix, login again with the same password you used originally.

Tip:
If you have the Update Users permission, you can configure the inactivity timeout period for your organisation in User iconuser > Settings iconSettings > Security > System Settings. For example, to extend the timeout from 15 minutes (by default) to 2 hours if required to minimise disruption, select 2 hours from the Select user inactivity timeout list and click Save.
Timeout settings
Note:
The session timeout is capped at 2 hours to comply with the ADHA My Health Record Security conformance profile. This is a mandatory ADHA requirement and not a Helix preference.
Note:
If you have Helix running in more than one standard tab or window, if you are actively using Helix in at least one tab, the system won't be locked for any tabs.
If there is no user activity within the configured timeout period, Helix automatically logs the user out. Users must then log back into Helix to continue.
