Info

The most recent version of Chrome is the only supported browser of the FOLIO development community (as well as other Chromium-based browsers). Your browser of choice might have similar steps to clear your cache, but we are keeping this page scoped to Chrome only.

There are a handful of reasons why you might want to reset FOLIO. You might encounter bugs that cause display issues until you clear prior session information. Your permissions within FOLIO might also change and you will want to log in again to see the changes. These steps describe a way to reset your FOLIO session without impacting other sites that you access from your browser.
