# View and terminate sessions (UI)

If you have configured Advanced Identity Cloud to use [server-side authenticated sessions](server-side-sessions.html), you can view and terminate users' sessions under Native Consoles > Access Management.

Learn about advanced functionality that's not available in the UI in [Manage sessions over REST](managing-sessions-REST.html).

## View authenticated sessions

1. Under Native Consoles > Access Management, go to Realms > *Realm Name*.

2. Select Sessions.

3. The Sessions page appears with a single field in which to enter a username.

   Advanced Identity Cloud uses generated UUIDs for usernames. To get a UUID:

   1. In the Advanced Identity Cloud admin console, go to Identities > Manage.

   2. From the *Realm Name* - Users list, click the user for which you want to obtain the UUID.

   3. Click Raw JSON from the left-hand menu, and copy the value for `_id`. For example, `0c8a31fa-a763-4fca-9352-0c3cc84a2138`.

4. Paste the UUID in the Session page's username field.

5. Click the entry in the drop-down list to search for the user's authenticated sessions.

   If the user has active server-side sessions, Advanced Identity Cloud retrieves the authenticated sessions for the user and displays them in a table:

   ![An administrator can view and invalidate server-side sessions.](_images/session-management.png)

## Terminate authenticated sessions

To terminate a user's server-side authenticated session:

1. [View the user's authenticated sessions](#view-sessions).

2. Select the authenticated session you want to terminate.

3. Click the Invalidate Selected button.

After you terminate a user's session, the user must reauthenticate to access resources protected by Advanced Identity Cloud.

Deleting a user doesn't remove a user's server-side authenticated sessions. After deleting a user, use the preceding steps to check for any authenticated sessions for the user and invalidate them.
