Refere validate expire

Hi,

i have a question about the referer validate module.
When a client request a video from a valid referer the video plays correectly.
Is there a expiring time after this or will this be infinite?

Nice to have you here in the community @Giovanni_Essed1. :slightly_smiling_face:

As far as valid session duration, it is not infinite, the session validation duration is 60 seconds by defualt, but you can adjust how long you want that session to be valid within the parameters for the referer validate module settings.

You can find those here:

As far as the expiration time settings you can see those here in the code on our GitHub, It explains how that is configured.

You need to scroll down to this section here as shown in the image:

Thanks for you answer!
