I don't know if this is what you want. If you want to have access, in your code, to the session-timeout-minutes variable, you can try this methode on your session_data_manager object : getTimeoutMinutes(self): Return the number of minutes allowed for subobject inactivity before expiration. PermissionView management screens This is from the api documentation of TransientContainer class, found in the help link in the ZMI of temp_folder/session_data_manager. In your code, you can use something like : <tal code> you'll be securely logged in for another <span tal:replace="python context.temp_folder.session_data_manager.getTimeoutMinutes() "></span> minutes unless you log out or log in again". </tal> Y.Chaouche 2007/1/23, Dieter Maurer <dieter@handshake.de>:

This might be an FAQ but I wasn't able to find it when searching. How do I get access to the value of 'session-timeout-minutes' coming from etc/zope.conf in runtime Zope?
The value is used to configure the so called "Session Data Manager" (usually "/temp_folder/session_data").
Its management page is able to show you the value.
This means, there is some way to access it. You can use this way in your own application (you might need a proxy role to get sufficient privileges).
