'Keep Me Signed In' Option Using GAPPS No Longer Working When Browser is Closed

XMLWordPrintable

      Summary

      The 'Keep Me Signed In' Option Using GAPPS is No Longer Working after closing your browser. A user has to keep logging in everytime a browser is closed even though cookies are not cleared manually. This was working a couple of weeks ago (possibly related to the OAuth2 change).

      Environment

      • GAPPS enabled

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Make sure Google authentication is enabled in the environment
      2. Make sure the 'Keep me signed in' option is checked under the Google Apps login section
      3. Log in using the 'Sign In Using Google' option
      4. Once logged in, close the browser tab and then close the browser (make sure to quit)
      5. Reopen browser and navigate to the instance url

      Expected Results

      A user did not need to log in again when the browser was closed when using the Keep Me signed in option

      Actual Results

      A user is always prompted to login again when the browser is closed, regardless of time elapsed.

      Notes

      • multiple browsers tested (Chrome V42.0.2311.135, Firefox V37.0.2, IE 10,11)
      • It looks like no Persistent cookie is created when signing in with Google like the ondemand.autologin cookie equivalent of Cloud login.

      Solution / Workaround

      Do not close the browser/log in again
