Logout | Leapwork Docs

The Logout block is used to perform a system logout for the Leapwork user on the Agent machine. Place it near the end of a flow when you want to end the current desktop session as part of your automation.

Fully expanded, the Logout block shows the following properties:

Note: The screenshot on this page uses the Elegance Design, introduced in 2025.3. If you are using an earlier version, your layout may look different.

Quick-start

1. Drag Logout onto the canvas.
2. Configure the basic parameters for the logout step in your flow: optionally enable Force logout and adjust Timeout (sec), then connect the block where the session should end.
3. Run the flow when it’s ready.

Building block parameters

Parameters

• Block header: Shows the current name of the Logout block. You can rename it by double-clicking the header and typing a new title. The green input connector starts the logout operation when the flow reaches this block, and the green output connector triggers when the logout has completed successfully.

• Force logout: When selected, forces the system logout by terminating the user session process on the Agent machine. Use this option when a normal logout might hang or not complete due to open applications or dialogs.

• Failed: Green output connector that triggers if the system logout is not completed within the configured timeout. Use this connector to branch the flow for error handling, logging, or recovery actions.

• Timeout (sec): Specifies the maximum number of seconds the Logout block will wait for the system logout operation to complete before triggering the Failed output.
