Sharing Remote Desktop Sessions on Horizon Windows Client

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.

Information for End Users

An administrator must enable the Session Collaboration feature. Contact your administrator to learn about how the Session Collaboration feature behaves at your company.
