integrate downloading trans-coded videos without needing to run a program

Andrew@cure 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 2

It would be very helpful to allow screen connect to just download the videos so we can view them for auditing purposes. Without needing to run the batch capture processor, which has reliability issues. 

Answer

You can download videos directly from the Audit page by clicking the Download Video link:

Also, we have an updated extension available if you want to automate this:

Add Option to Share "Host Pass" from Session ToolBar

Sean Keown 5 years ago updated by Sean White 5 years ago 1

It would be nice to have the option to share a host past from the toolbar of the session that is in progress. This would allow apps that use the API aka Automate to be able to use host pass. 


Right now i have to give users access to both control and automate but the security permissions are different depending on where you log into the platform from. 

Answer
Sean White 5 years ago

Unfortunately, this isn't technically possible at this time, as the Host client does not have awareness of the web server.

Manual entry of subnet range search for client network deployer.

Please add the ability to manually enter in a subnet to scan. This is helpful for companies that have multiple sites with multiple VLANS and VPN.

Naming of the records

jan dorndorf 5 years ago 0

It would be very helpful if the name of the support account that started the session were included in the file name of the recorded remote maintenance. For example:

ConnectWise_Remote_Session_<Supporter>_<Customer>_<Date>.avi

Now when 10 people in a department are working with Control and the files are stored together on a network drive, it's easier to keep the recorded sessions separate.

More Granular 2FA Cookie Control than TrustDeviceExpireDays

Spencer77 5 years ago updated by Caitlin M Barnes (Product Manager) 4 years ago 1

I'd like to see better time controls than TrustDeviceExpireDays currently offers.

Use Case: While a lot goes into insure our staff's devices do not get compromised, it could be a matter of time. If an attacker took control of a PC here with saved credentials in the browser, if it's within 1 day, 2FA doesn't prompt.

Sure, you could set TrustDeviceExpireDays to 0, but now I feel I'd be annoying staff with that alone combined with MaxLongestTicketReissueIntervalSeconds.

Ideally, I'd like something like "a few hours" for MaxLongestTicketReissueIntervalSeconds, but maybe 9 hours for TrustDeviceExpireDays (obviously, pretending the word "Days" isn't there).  This would force users to re-authenticate after a few hours idle, but not necessarily have to use 2FA, making the assumption with the times I provided above that the user is still working his/her shift.

It's not a perfect idea, but it's an improvement to MaxLongestTicketReissueIntervalSeconds = 7200 and TrustDeviceExpireDays = 0

Ability to Reboot android

NickSingh 5 years ago 0

Would you be able to add feature to reboot android devices. Currently it doesn’t work using CW client and those controls are useless. This could be handy in many situations.
