parameter when you start an AgentSession
. If you want to turn off this timeout altogether, just set it to None
.
Here’s a quick example if you want to set it to 10 seconds instead:
session = AgentSession(user_away_timeout=10.0)
Got any more questions or need a hand with this? Just let me know—I’m here to help!wooden-librarian-60399

parameter can only be set when you first create the AgentSession
. Unfortunately, you can't change it programmatically once the session is up and running. So, if you want a different timeout, you'll need to start a new AgentSession
with the updated value.
If you're looking for a way to handle inactivity more dynamically, a good approach is to use the user_state_changed
event. This lets you add your own custom logic when the user goes "away." Alternatively, you could manage your own timers outside the session to keep track of inactivity in a way that fits your needs.
Feel free to reach out if you'd like me to walk you through these options or if you have any other questions!
