Script include: AuthUtil The setting is read as a number of seconds for a buffer before an OAuth access token expires, which can affect when the token is treated as expiring; the shown code does not reveal the exact user or admin impact. If unset or not supplied, the code passes a default of 30 seconds. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=96437ac6b7203210601223508e11a912

Script include: GliderGitCredentialsUtil The token retrieval logic reads this setting as a seconds-based safety window: an existing access token is reused only if it has at least that much time left before expiry. This affects when users’ tokens are treated as needing renewal; if the setting is absent, the default is 30 seconds. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=36f3f32493b842109cfe9b948189186c
