How to detect the session timeout in Asp.net Core?

Question

I can see how to put stuff in Session and Cache from this project.

Can you please tell me how to detect the session timeout in controllers/actions? Do we need some kind of attribute for it?

Yes, Create an attribute and keep it as attribute for the controller/action and in the attribute class check session value and if not valid redirect to login page — Vinod Kumar

I don't want to check my own objects in the session whether they exist or not. I need a global strategy to see if old session is expired? — eadam

Session expiration is only tracked via its IDistributedCache entry expiration, which has no notification mechanic. What are you trying to do when the session expires? — Tratcher

If I were you I would try to use MVC6 cache tag helper.
