The Xbox One does not automatically turn off after a set amount of inactivity. However, if the console is inactive for a certain amount of time, it will enter into a low-power state. In this state, the console will turn off automatically after a few minutes.
Leaving your Xbox on overnight is generally not a problem, but it depends on what you have it set to do. If you have it set to turn off after a certain amount of time, then it will turn off and you don’t need to worry about it. If you have it set to keep playing games or videos, then it will continue to use power and may run down your battery.
The Xbox will go to sleep after a certain amount of time of inactivity. This time can be adjusted in the settings.
Leaving an Xbox on for an extended period of time can cause the system to overheat and potentially damage the console.

Inactivity on Xbox is considered not using your Xbox for a period of time. This can be due to not signing in, not playing games, or not using any other features of the Xbox. If you don’t sign in or use your Xbox for a period of time, your account may be deactivated.
The Xbox One does have a sleep mode. To put the console in sleep mode, press and hold the Xbox button on the front of the console for a few seconds until it turns off.
The Xbox One S is designed to not overheat. If it does overheat, there are several ways to cool it down, including turning it off and unplugging it for a few minutes.

Leaving your Xbox One on while downloading a game is not necessary. The console will go into standby mode after a certain amount of time if it is not being used, and the download will continue to work in the background.
There are a few things you can do to try to stop your Xbox from turning off while you’re AFK. One is to make sure that your energy settings are set to “Never” turn off. You can also try changing your power mode to “Instant-on.” If neither of those solutions work, you may want to try connecting your Xbox to a surge protector.
