Notify host by email when user logs out of computer

Cooper 8 years ago updated by anonymous 7 years ago 2

Add option when right-clicking a computer to notify host when the user has logged out of their computer and/or if the user is idle for X number of minutes. A couple examples of its use....
There's a meeting and you need to connect to that conference room computer once the meeting is over. You use this feature and get an email when the user has logged out.
Another example would be if a user says they will be leaving at 3PM so you can look at their computer, but they don't end up leaving until 3:30. Having this feature would keep the host from having to either physically check to see if the user is still there OR keep the host from having to keep refreshing to see if the user is gone/idle.

Proxy password shows in plain text

Kent 8 years ago updated by anonymous 8 years ago 2

When you enter a proxy username / password into the screen connect client, then the password is displayed in plain text in the status area for the relay.

It would be good if this can be masked somehow.

Add File Upload capabilities to Extension Developer extension.

Steven 8 years ago updated by anonymous 6 years ago 3

It would be nice to be able to have a "Upload File" option in the editor portion of the Extension Developer. This would work great for uploading files being worked on in an IDE or a way to upload the Promote.PNG file - especially when developing in the Cloud.

Add ability to Block Input from other Hosts on a session

anonymous 9 years ago updated by swhite (Product Manager) 5 months ago 7

Partner is requesting more control over secondary hosts that may be in a session. Current behavior allows all hosts that are in a session to have full control over the session. Ideally the partner would like to be able to control input settings for each of the other hosts like in a meeting session. Allow control from everybody or nobody function we currently employ may be a solution.

1. First host in the session should be the primary host.
2. Sharing options should be exposed through the host client menu for the primary host to allow control by everyone or noone
3. If the primary host drops from the session control of the session should roll to the second host to join the session.
