Hey everyone,
would it be possible to implement the Vault-Timeout Policy? Or would we face the same potential problem as with this Feature Request [here](https://vaultwarden.discourse.group/t/disable-personal-vault-export-policy/1374)?

I would start here: [web/bitwarden\_license at master · bitwarden/web · GitHub](https://github.com/bitwarden/web/tree/master/bitwarden_license)
Though, there could be someway around this. We can’t use the web-vault version with those policies to be able to easily editable by managers, admins or owners. It maybe is possible to still implement it within the backend-server and allow some way of editing it via the /admin interface maybe, but, i’m not sure if that is possible, not looked into it that deep my self.

It is possible to enable it via SQL but single organisation policy needs to be enabled as well.
This is the command I used in MySQL:
```auto
INSERT INTO org_policies (uuid, org_uuid, atype, enabled, data) VALUES ('random-uuid-here', 'org-uuid-here', '9', '1', '{"minutes":120}');
```

Hi, I also needed to configure an organization policy, could you please tell me what the atype parameter in your SQL query example is responsible for?

The `atype` corresponds to the `OrgPolicyType`:

Thanks for the help, then the next question is if this functionality does not work, but a colleague above indicated that his query worked, is there no information if it will work for sure?
And is it possible to configure a storage timeout action with the exit parameter?

Hi,
what should I put in the “data” field of the `MaximumVaultTimeout = 9` if I do not want a time based lockout but for example these options:
```auto
INSERT INTO org_policies (uuid, org_uuid, atype, enabled, data) VALUES ('random-uuid-here', 'org-uuid-here', '9', '1', '{"?????":?????}');
```
- On system idle
- On system sleep
- On system lock
- On restart
