Re: [keycloak-dev] configure longer access tokens / permanent access tokens

Hi Stian, ideally (as for offline refresh tokens) you should be able to invalidate the session manually (e.g. in case the iot device is compromised).

My understanding, is that basically you would be happy to have this in the core code, right?

At the time being, using the approach of loorent, what we have been thinking to test is attaching to the access token an offline session instead of a normal session. I will let you know if this easy experiment works out :)
