Description from store
A simple extension to prevent session timeouts on the Workday website.
This extension only works if you have an active Workday subscription, and a valid Workday account.
By default, the Workday session is configured to timeout within ten minutes, and the Workday user interface includes a number of overlay windows which hide the warning message that your session is about to timeout.
In testing, this extension has been found to reliably prevent your Workday session from timing out for a minimum of two hours, and up to a maximum of approximately eight hours. If your computer goes to sleep, or if Google Chrome is inactive for a significant period of time, the extension will no longer be able to keep your Workday session alive.
Release Notes:
- v1.0.5 includes updated icons and improved error-handling.
- v1.0.6 includes fixed extension icon (in the list of installed extensions).
- v1.0.7 includes improvements to error handling.
- v1.0.8 includes improved capability to keep the Workday session active, and basic notifications.
- v1.0.9 includes fix for a bug that sometimes causes Workday to show NaN error.
- v1.1.0 includes a major update that should allow the extension to work on all cloud Workday instances (wd1.workday.com, wd2.workday.com, ...).
- v1.1.1 includes a fix for a bug that sometimes causes Workday session cookies to disappear after the initial get/set cycle.
Latest reviews
- (2025-06-05) G C: I've been using this extension for a couple years now, and it has been a game changer! Saved me from much aggravation. I especially love that it's not disruptive like other extensions that rely on repeated reloads the page. In case the developer is reading the reviews, I have a suggestion: it would be amazing if there was also a way to prevent logging out of Workday sandbox and other test environments. Right now the extension only has access to https://*.myworkday.com/* and no option to add others. Could you also add https://impl.workday.com/* to the scope? Regardless, thanks for a great tool!

- (2024-08-05) Grant Menefee: keeps workday from logging out, but I don't think it helps advance the timer since i believe it requires clicking around for it to progress.
- (2024-07-09) J Victor: I just installed it a day ago and so far I'm very pleased. It works as advertised, makes me very happy. If I may make a request/question: is there way to add another URL for other Workday tenants like Sandbox and Preview others (all start with the prefix of 'https://impl.workday.com)?
