If you don't specify a timeout period when you create a codespace, then the default timeout period will be used. For information about setting a default timeout period, click the "Web browser" tab on this page. You can't currently specify a default timeout period through {% data variables.product.prodname_cli %}.

## Setting a timeout period
You can set your default timeout period in your web browser, on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}. Alternatively, if you use {% data variables.product.prodname_cli %} to create a codespace you can set a timeout period for that particular codespace. For more information, click the appropriate tab above.
