Login Types

The login type determines what happens when the application establishes a connection to the Insights Platform and another session is currently active.

There are three valid login types: LoginType.POSSESS, LoginType.KILL, and LoginType.NOKILL.
  • LoginType.POSSESS attaches the new connection to an existing session if one is active when the connection is established.
  • LoginType.KILL ends an existing session and starts a new one when the connection is established.
  • LoginType.NOKILL fails to connect if an existing session is active when the connection is established.

If no session is active, a new session is started.
