This article is for global and SharePoint admins in Office 365 who want to control user access to SharePoint and OneDrive data on unmanaged devices. Idle session sign-out lets you specify a time at which users are warned and subsequently signed out of Office 365 after a period of browser inactivity in SharePoint and OneDrive.
Note
Idle session sign-out applies to the entire organization and can't be set for specific sites or users.
Idle session sign-out is one of a number of policies you can use with SharePoint and OneDrive to balance security and user productivity and help keep your data safe regardless where users access the data, what device they're working on, and how secure their network connection is. For more ways to control access in SharePoint and OneDrive, see How SharePoint and OneDrive safeguard your data in the cloud.

Mar 26, 2020 Idle session sign-out is one of a number of policies you can use with SharePoint and OneDrive to balance security and user productivity and help keep your data safe regardless where users access the data, what device they're working on, and how secure their network connection is. If you don't have access to the PC or Mac where you're signed in, you can sign out remotely from a web browser. It can take up to 72 hours for Office to detect that you've signed out. From any device, go to your Microsoft account, Installs page and sign in using your Microsoft account, if prompted.

Activity is counted as requests sent to SharePoint, such as clicks. Moving the mouse and scrolling are not counted as activity.

Note
If a user is active in another Office 365 service (such as Outlook), but inactive in SharePoint and OneDrive, they'll be signed out across Office 365. If a user has multiple tabs to OneDrive and SharePoint sites open at the same time, they won't be signed out unless they are inactive on all the sites. > Users won't be signed out if they selected to stay signed in when they signed in. For info about hiding this option, see Add company branding to your sign-in page in Azure AD. Users won't be signed out on a managed device (one that is compliant or joined to a domain), unless they're using inPrivate mode or a browser other than Edge or Internet Explorer. If they use Google Chrome, you need to use an extension to pass the device state claim. For more info about device state claims, see Azure AD conditional access settings.

Focused Inbox helps you focus on the emails that matter most to you. It separates your inbox into two tabs—Focused and Other. Your most important emails are on the Focused tab while the rest remain easily accessible—but out of the way—on the Other tab. You’ll be informed about email flowing to Other, and you can switch between tabs at any time to take a quick look.
If you'd like to get someone's attention in an email message or a meeting invite, you can type the @ symbol, followed by their name, in the body of the email message or a meeting invite.
