Any way to logout or disconnect from API to prevent "logged in admins" growing?

Not applicable

I'm using PAN::XAPI XML API module to perform various actions on a Palo Alto firewall.  The connections seem to work fine.  However, after a while I still see the admin logged in according to the Dashboard tab.   They stay there until the idle timeout is reached.

I'd prefer to be able to call a disconnect() or logout() type of method when I'm done with the XML calls so the user isn't still logged in.  A lot of the actions we do may connect, do a few commands and then disconnect.

As a workaround, I've been using the panxapi and panaddr commands that come with the API module.  They do not have admin sessions hanging around after exiting.
