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.
You can invite only users that belong to a domain that the server allows for authentication. You can invite up to five users by default. A Horizon administrator can change the maximum number of users that you can invite.
The Session Collaboration feature has the following limitations.
After you send an invitation, the VMware Horizon Collaboration icon also appears on the desktop and the Session Collaboration user interface turns into a dashboard that shows the current state of the collaboration session and enables you to take certain actions.
When a session collaborator accepts your invitation to join a Windows remote desktop session, the Session Collaboration feature notifies you and a red dot appears on the VMware Horizon Collaboration icon in the system tray. When a session collaborator accepts your invitation to join a Linux remote desktop session, a notification appears in the primary session desktop.
Manage the remote desktop session in the VMware Horizon Collaboration dialog box. See Manage a Shared Remote Desktop Session.
