With the Session Collaboration feature, you can invite other users to join an existing remote desktop session. A remote desktop session that is shared in this way is called a collaborative session. The user that shares a session with another user is called the session owner, and the user that joins a shared session is called a session collaborator.

A Horizon administrator must enable the Session Collaboration feature.

For information about how the Session Collaboration feature behaves at your company, contact your system administrator.

With the Session Collaboration feature, you can invite users to join a remote desktop session by sending collaboration invitations by email, in an instant message (Windows remote desktops only), or by copying a link to the clipboard and forwarding the link to users.

After you send a session collaboration invitation, the Session Collaboration user interface turns into a dashboard that shows the current state of the shared remote desktop session (collaborative session) and enables you to take certain actions.

With the Session Collaboration feature, you can click the link in a collaboration invitation to join a remote desktop session. The link might be in an email or instant message, or in a document that the session owner forwards to you. Alternatively, you can log in to the server and double-click the icon for the session in the remote desktop and application selector window.
