How participants can request control over My Product tool:
Assistants
Assistants have a Take control button at the top of their session, on the left of the view button (Gallery/Speakers). Once assistants click that button, they’ll automatically have control over the tool embedded.
Participants
Participants also have a Request control button at the top of their session, next to the view modes (Gallery/Speakers/Audience). Once they click that button, you, as the host, will receive a notification to accept or decline their request to control the tool ⬇️:
Participants will see this notification after you’ve given them access to the tool ⬇️:
My Product tool vs. Embedding a link
The main difference between sharing a link through your palette or embedding My Product tool is this:
- When you’re using My Product tool, only one person can browse it, and everybody in the audience follows the presentation of that link, app, or platform. Audience members can request control of the resource shared in My Product tool. Everybody else will see how they are browsing My Product tool.
- When simply sharing a link through the Share palette, everybody in the audience can interact with the website embedded on their own. The activity of each participant is private.
