+- [Improved](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/292811) in GitLab 13.8, with an updated timeout experience.
 
 With this option enabled, users must go through your group's GitLab single sign-on URL. They may also be added via SCIM, if configured. Users can't be added manually, and may only access project/group resources via the UI by signing in through the SSO URL.
 
-However, users are not prompted to sign in through SSO on each visit. GitLab checks whether a user has authenticated through SSO, and only prompts the user to sign in via SSO if the session has expired.
+However, users are not prompted to sign in through SSO on each visit. GitLab checks whether a user
+has authenticated through SSO. If it's been more than 7 days since the last sign-in, GitLab
+prompts the user to sign in again through SSO.
 You can see more information about how long a session is valid in our [user profile documentation](../../profile/#why-do-i-keep-getting-signed-out).
 
 We intend to add a similar SSO requirement for [Git and API activity](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/9152).
