Managing the Screen Share Link

When you send an invitation, Bria generates a Screen Share link that includes a session ID:

http://join.softphone.com/ABCDEFGHIJKLM

The session ID portion of the link (ABCDEFGHIJKLM in the above example) is unique to you as a user. Each
time you send an invitation, this session ID will be used. A new session ID will not be generated.

This means that you can, for example, send an invitation (using one of the methods that does not start a session
immediately) as a future or semi-permanent invitation.

Generating a New Session ID

Sometimes you will invite someone “outside your circle” – for example, a customer in another organization –
and you may not want that person to be able to join future screen share sessions. In this case, you can generate a
new link with a new session ID either at the end of the session that has the participant who is outside your circle,
or at the start of the next invitation you make.

On the Screen Share tab, click Invite to show
the Information dialog

Then click Generate to create a new screen
share link

A new session ID. The old ID no
longer lets other people view your
screen share
