Space Admin - Unlock Timeouts

Page Contents



Unlock Timeouts

The  Space Tools » Cenote Lockpoint » Unlock Timeouts tab allows you to adjust the timing used when sending notifications to users about attachments that have been locked for too long, and also to adjust the interval used by (or disable) the automatic unlocking feature. Lockpoint uses the globally-defined unlock timeouts unless the values are overridden in a specific space.

Only Space Administrators and Confluence Administrators have access to this page.


To continue using the system-wide defaults in this space, select the Use system default warning and unlock timeouts checkbox and click Save. The default system-wide settings are shown in the greyed-out control below.

To override the system-wide defaults, deselect the Use system default warning and unlock timeouts checkbox to make the rest of the dialog accessible:


Email Warnings: Configure Timeout or Disable 

By default, if an attachment has remained locked for too long, Lockpoint will automatically send an email reminder to the lock owner. Spaces automatically default to the value configured in the global Lockpoint configuration. To change this timing for this space only, adjust the number of hours in the Email warning after (hours) field and click Save. Alternatively, to disable warning emails entirely within this space, select the Disable warning emails checkbox.

The default contents of the email warning can be found on the Email Notifications tab.

Automatic Unlocking: Configure Timeout or Disable

Lockpoint will also automatically unlock an attachment and send an email notification to the lock owner after a defined period of time. Spaces automatically default to the value configured in the global Lockpoint configuration.

To change this timing for the space, enter a value in the Unlock after (hours) field. To disable automatic unlocking within this space only, select the Disable automatic unlocking checkbox.
