Session sharing

Session sharing

Introduction

The Share Session feature enables users to share an active desktop connection with others, allowing them to view and interact with the session in various ways. The shared session will replicate exactly what is being displayed on the local connection, continuously updating the remote user's browser with the remote desktop image.

Sharing the remote session

To share your desktop connection with other users, follow these steps:

1. Open the desktop connection you wish to share.

2. Initiate session sharing by clicking on Actions in the connection toolbar, then select Share Session.

​


3. A dialog will display the Sharing Address and Password required to access this connection remotely.




4. The connection is now available for remote access. Share the URL and password with the person you want to invite to the session.


Accessing the shared connection remotely


1. Open your preferred browser on any computer or device and paste the sharing address (URL) into the address bar.

2. You will be prompted to enter the password. Type it into the dialog box and click the OK button to proceed.

You are now able to view and interact with the previously shared connection.
