Confluence is running in an EKS environment. 

I'm using the current version of the helm chart 2.0.4. 

    set {
        name = "confluence.session.timeout"
        value = "2"
    }
I've also used:
    }
    set {
        name  = "confluence.additionalEnvironmentVariables[0].name"
        value = "ATL_CONFLUENCE_SESSION_TIMEOUT"
    }
    set {
        name  = "confluence.additionalEnvironmentVariables[0].value"
        value = "2"  # 2 minutes
        type  = "string"
 
Neither option works.

Welcome to the Atlassian Community @steven vereen !

Did yo try the following?

  • HTTP Timeout Settings: 
    These settings control connection and socket timeouts for external connections made by Confluence. You can configure these in the Confluence administration interface under General Configuration > Connection Timeouts.
  • Session Timeout: 
    This setting controls how long a user's session remains active. You can adjust this by modifying the session-timeout value in the web.xml file located in <confluence-install>/confluence/WEB-INF/

    Best,
