This is a surprisingly common request. You have the URL for a room, but the URL tells you very little about the owner or the folder in which it resides. You can use this for other content as well. Let’s say I want to find the following meeting room: https://getconnect.adobeconnect.com/r38cejctu6a/ Just using the ‘Search’ pane […]
This is a relatively quick post to let you ensure you are doing everything you can to get the most out of your Connect room. Specifically this deals with bandwidth, latency, performance when using cameras, voice, PowerPoint, videos (MP4) and screen-sharing. 1 – Hard Wire your ethernet/internet connection wherever possible: I have run many meetings […]
The following link (and pasted content) outlines the permissions that are assigned by the built-in permission groups in Connect. This is kindof hidden in the documentation but good to know. Built‑in permission groups: https://helpx.adobe.com/adobe-connect/using/setting-permissions-library-files-folders.html Built‑in permission groups Adobe Connect has eight built-in permission groups, each associated with a different library. Each member of a Built-in […]
You may want to use your Microsoft Skype conferencing numbers with Connect. You can do this, but you need a toll-free number from Microsoft Skype.

There are fully integrated conferencing providers that are already deeply integrated with Connect. These providers just require you to enable the provider under the ‘Administration’ tab and ‘Audio Providers’. You can then add your personal conference information from the ‘My Profile’ tab and then ‘My Audio Profiles’. Connect already knows how to use the information […]
You may want to move a Seminar Room you have created to another license to take advantage of a larger capacity, or is you have changed your license structure (moved from a shared seminar/webinar license to a named seminar/webinar license for example). Note – ‘SWM’ denotes a ‘Shared Webinar Manager’ license. ‘NWM’ denotes a ‘Named […]
There are a number of lobby timers that can be used with Connect that are available from the Connect Extensions site. These are very stylish and slick, but be aware that a .swf in the simplest form will not work on the Connect Mobile App. Connect Extensions: http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/apps.html For that reason I have a selection […]
In a classroom environment, you may be using a SMART Board and want to integrate this with Connect for virtual or ‘hybrid’ classes (part physical, part virtual). The integration is essentially just a screen-share, but I found this Blog Post from the Adobe Education folks and a video that is very helpful and shows this […]

To enable this option, move the recording to your ‘Content’ section and then you will see the number of views under the ‘Reports’>’Summary’ option (Figure 1).
