Stax is required to limit the length of active user sessions to meet security and compliance obligations. It was recently identified that some sessions exceeded the required timeout. These sessions have been invalidated, and improved timeouts introduced.
Affected users will be required to log in to Stax again, but no other functionality is impacted. Stax login URLs are different in different regions, and are available in the docs.
