2. Choose whether SecureAuth IdP will deliver the token in a cookie to the user's browser or device:
UseCookies enables SecureAuth IdP to always deliver a cookie
UseUri disables SecureAuth IdP to deliver a cookie, and instead deliver the token in a query string
AutoDetect enables SecureAuth IdP to deliver a cookie if the user's settings allow it
UseDeviceProfile enables SecureAuth IdP to deliver a cookie if the browser's settings allow it, no matter the user's settings
3. Set the Sliding Expiration to True if the cookie remains valid as long as the user is interacting with the page
4. Set the Timeout length to determine for how many minutes a cookie is valid
Note
No configuration is required for the Name, Login URL, or Domain fields

Selecting False - Session Cookie enables the cookie to be valid as long as the session is open, and will expire once the browser is closed or the session expires
Note
No configuration is required for the Pre-Auth Cookie, Post-Auth Cookie, or the Clean Up Pre-Auth Cookie fields
