Move the end button away from join

Larry 9 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 3

The "END" link on the Host screen for Access connections really needs to have an "are you sure" dialog to prevent folks from permanently disconnecting a remote host. I know it says that it will permanently disconnect the host, but fact the link is right next to Join, Edit and More diminishes the importance of this action. Maybe move the END button to the More section to make it harder to find.

Ability to add notes directly in session

Administrator 9 years ago updated by swhite (Product Manager) 9 months ago 3

Partner would like the ability to add notes when in a session

User Story:

When a partner is working on a guest machine, it would be nice if notes could be added without going to Host Page->Notes.

This may work as a menu item (Notes) with a text box to enter.

"Denied" message to host when a guest does not consent to a session

Administrator 9 years ago updated by anonymous 7 years ago 5

Partner would like to have a configurable message when a guest denies consent.

User Story:

When a technician attempts to connect to a machine and a guest denies consent to the technician a message should appear to the host that the connection has been explicitly denied.

It would also be beneficial if the message can be customized, or the guest could add a note.

We alert hosts in client when a guest denies consent and we encourage communication through the client chat to learn why it was denied. See below.

Add parameters to the "run tool" feature.

Larry 9 years ago updated by anonymous 7 years ago 1

If not, I think this would be a really useful since most tools you would run without connecting to a session probably need some parameter (ie, /silent, /output=program.log, /id=XYZ)
I have work arounds to this functionality now - but "run tool" is still most useful as an on-the-fly tool for technicians and the workaround involve packaging a tool and basic script together into 1 file - which is obviously not usually quick.

JasonScoltock 2 months ago 0

While you have a feature called unattended access for android it isnt truely unattended access as someone has to select either single app or entire screen. If there was a way to select entire screen automatically it would me for example it could be used on android device running kiosks
