frontend.ini#

The frontend.ini config file, located at /etc/squirro/frontend.ini configures the workings of the Squirro frontend user interface

Activity Logging#

Activity logging can be enabled by placing log_activity = true in the [activity] section of frontend.ini;

frontend.ini

[activity]
log_activity = true

Enabling Access Logging will produce activity logs starting activity* under /var/log/squirro/frontend.

Reduce HTTP Session#

See SAML SSO for Squirro.

Force End Browser Session#

To force end all browser sessions, add or change (if it already exists) the secret_key property in the [flask_app] section of frontend.ini:

frontend.ini

[flask_app]
secret_key = cd72f5568714078b8aacf1576c8023245554c03d36e674350174cebc

From the Flask documentation:

Note

If a secret key is set, cryptographic components can use this to sign cookies and other things. Set this to a complex random value when you want to use the secure cookie for instance.This attribute can also be configured from the config with the SECRET_KEY configuration key. Defaults to None.
