Question

Can I set Connect meeting background as a WebPage that contains live links?

We're looking to harness the Adobe Connect meeting functionality by using it as a kind of a customers portal, where the user can (among other things) retrieve reports relating to their workflow.

PRESENT STATE

Our organisation has a Report Web Application that lists reports (in pdf) that are mailed out to our customers. The administrator assistant generates reports from an https page from the Report Web Application.

FUTURE STATE (hopefully!)

1. Our organisation administrator sets up as many meetings in Connect as there are customers. Each customer has only one meeting. None of the other customers can see the others' meetings.

2. On entry to the Connect meeting, the customer will be able to access the Report Web Application as a webpage and download the reports she requires

My big questions here:

1. Can we publish a webpage (with live links) in Connect?

2. We'd like to encrypt the Connect meeting room webpage for best possible security. Is it possible to encrypt (https) some meetings but not others? If so, what extra things do we need to do this. PKI Infrastructure?

3. Report Web Application is encrypted, will that make a difference to displaying t within an Adobe Connect meeting?

4. Is there any problem if the clicking a Report Web Application links generates a pdf.?

Other information:

-The Connect server is housed in our network if that makes any difference.

-The Web Reporting Application is pictured below. Clicking the 'Download' link will generate\display a pdf

-It will most likely need to be an encrypted webpage

That's all for now. Phone me if you like...I'd appreciate it!

    A custom pod can easily be created to display a website in Adobe Connect.

    Then place and size the pod based on your layout and use case.

    See an example here: Example Link

    I don't believe you will be able to place a web page as a background in Connect. At least not like you are hoping. 

    However, Adobe Connect does have an SDK for developing custom pods that allow you to build the functionality you need into your Meeting functionality. I'd suggest looking into this with your developers to look at building a custom pod (as they are commonly called) that launches your web application in a meeting. You could look to generate different builds that call specifically to individual customer data, or a version that can call to any customer data but only generates the correct customer data based on logic that you build into it.

     

    The Adobe Connect HTML SDK V2020 can be found near the top of this page, https://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/apps.html, along with some examples of other pods that people have created and released to the public.
