38Settings that govern the admin portal, such as whether organizations may manage seat tiers, apply immediately. Settings that govern the Claude applications themselves, such as the Claude Desktop banner, product availability, and telemetry endpoint, are delivered to each member's application the next time it refreshes its configuration, which happens when the application is launched or the member signs in. You do not need to push anything, but members who are currently running the application may need to restart it to pick up a change. Lowering the session idle timeout applies to new sign-ins only, and so does raising or removing the maximum session length. Lowering the maximum session length, or setting one for the first time, also reaches members who are already signed in, taking up to one idle timeout period to do so, as described under [Maximum session length](/docs/government/config/settings#maximum-session-length).
