Login and joining experience

Adobe Connect 12 features a revamped and reimagined login and joining experience. 

If the Enhanced Audio/Video Experience option is enabled for a room, users can enter the room either in browser or in Adobe Connect desktop application depending on whether they have the application nstalled on their computer.

After clicking or entering a room URL in the browser, a check is performed to see if the Adobe connect desktop application is installed on users machine. 

Adobe Connect application is installed

The room launches in the Adobe Connect application.

If you have already logged in to the application, you can enter the room directly without any intervention.

If you have not already logged in to the application, the application checks if you are logged in the browser. If yes, then you are redirected to the room. If you have not logged in to the browser, you must enter your credentials, and then you can enter the room. 

When the application is installed and not logged in to both browser and app, then login page opens in the app for entering the credentials.

Adobe Connect application is not installed

If the Adobe Connect application is not installed and you have entered the room URL in the browser, the browser checks if browser access is enabled for the room.

If browser access is enabled, then the room launches in the browser. 

If browser access is not enabled, then you will see a dialog prompting you to download Adobe Connect desktop application.

Participant login

A participant can join a meeting on the browser if the option Enable Browser access is enabled while creating the meeting.
