Add simple open http ability to trigger methods

Ebonweaver 8 years ago updated by swhite (Product Manager) 1 year ago 3

Right now the http method on a trigger is overly complex and actually very limited when thinking about the most simple application. The idea would be that based upon a simple evaluation of keywords in the chat message the client sends (assuming an unconnected session of course), a trigger could respond by opening a webpage or simply spitting back a url in the text chat they can click on. You could then set up a series of triggers evaluating for certain keywords that would point clients to various KB articles in a support site. This allows a self service situation before the tech even needs to get involved, wrapped into the same support tool.

add ability to share only a selected application during a meeting .

Answer
anonymous 8 years ago

When you start out with one application you can change it to another anytime during the meeting by clicking the "Change Sharing" option in the sidebar. Take a look at "Conducting your meeting" Section here: https://help.screenconnect.com/ScreenConnect_Remote_Meeting_Guide

You can also switch to fullscreen just by a right-click on the gray area at the top of a host client and then selecting "Maximize". https://help.screenconnect.com/Additional_client_right-click_features

Add event for chat to make email trigger usable

Ebonweaver 8 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 6

Right now the built in trigger to send an email if a client sends a chat message when there is no connection is not usable. The idea is clearly that a user could initiate a support request by sending this chat message, which would be forwarded to a support email alerting the team that x user on y system said something and needed attention. However, the parameters do not include any sort of logic for if a tech IS talking to the person WITHOUT a desktop connection. The result is, if a tech is just using text chat to help and is not opening a desktop session, EVERY message the user sends goes to the support email just spamming it with junk. So, the idea is great, but the execution is pretty useless and has to be removed. If there was some way to add a parameter for "and also no tech has sent a message to this client in the last 5 minutes" this would be usable and a great feature.

The extension was intended to send out an email right after the auto response. We are working to get this fixed and updated. This shouldn't be long, but we apologize for any inconvenience.

Role based session group filter

Vince Russo 8 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 3

I asked for this once before in the forums. Basically I want sessions for specific departments to filter into specific session groups. IE the sale department sessions filter into the sales group. It would seem simple if a user was assigned to the Sales Department role that I could filter by all users in the sales department role. When I asked before the only solution was to add a filter for each individual users (kinda a pain in the butt!).


Here is a link to the original forum post. http://forum.screenconnect.com/yaf_postst4791_Role-based-session-group-filter.aspx#post19061

When you logout, it should bump you to the guest page instead of remaining on the same page.

Ryan 8 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 2

This way, if someone is testing security changes to users without the admin permission, it will work without having to click on the host page. (because they are still attempting to login to the admin page
