Enabling Session Collaboration for Global Desktop Entitlements in Horizon 8

End users can invite other users to join an existing remote desktop session using the Session Collaboration feature.

To enable remote desktop users to collaborate, a Horizon administrator must enable the Session Collaboration feature for the desktop pool that provides the remote desktop. For RDS desktop pools, a Horizon administrator must enable the Session Collaboration feature for the farm on which the RDS desktop pool is based.

To enable invited users to join sessions from pods other than the session owner's pod, you must enable the Session Collaboration policy for the global desktop entitlement that contains the desktop pool when you create or modify the global desktop entitlement.

For complete Session Collaboration feature requirements and limitations, including licensing requirements, see "Configuring Session Collaboration" in the Horizon Remote Desktop Features and GPOs document.

Session Collaboration is not supported for published applications.
