Session Recording

What’s new

What’s new in 2106

This release includes the following new features and enhancements:

Windows Server 2022 support

Components, features, and technologies that support Windows Server operating systems now also support Windows Server 2022, unless noted otherwise. For more information, see Windows Server 2022 support.

Monitor file transfers

We have extended the scope of event logging to monitor file transfers between session hosts (VDAs) and client devices (including mapped client drives and generic redirected mass storage devices). Selecting the Log sensitive file events option for an event logging policy triggers the logging of file transfers, no matter whether or not you specify the File monitoring list. This enhanced feature requires Windows VDA 2106 or later. For more information, see Configure policies.

Record events only

In addition to recording screens, you can now record only specific events. This feature helps to free up storage space. To use this feature, activate either of the following new system-defined policies and then set an event logging policy to specify which events to record.

  • Record event only for everyone with notification
  • Record event only for everyone without notification

Record events only

An event-only recording played in the web player contains an event statistics pie chart and histogram. The pie chart and histogram hold static throughout playback. You can navigate to a specific event from within the right pane.

The following screen capture shows an example of an event-only recording being played in the Session Recording Player. The EventOnly column indicates a screen recording or an event-only recording. All events are present in the Events and Bookmarks panel and show as yellow dots in the lower part of the Session Recording Player.
