Overview
When you are using a Desktop version of Sococo, you are not presented with the information about your room URL. This makes it hard to find and share the URL of the room you are in so that other users can join the room.
This article describes a process that Desktop users can use to find the URL without logging into the Browser version via Chrome.
Information
The browser version of Sococo shows the URL of the room you are in, so it is easy to copy and share the link with others (see image below).
However, in the Desktop version of Sococo, you are not presented with the room URL. The easiest way to get the link is to briefly switch to the Chrome browser version, log in there and copy the room link.
If you do not have Chrome installed, you may also use the process described below to get the room link.
Process
- Open your Desktop application.
- Open the Developer tools:
- In Windows/Linux, press Ctrl + Shift + I.
- In Mac, press Cmd + Opt + J.
- In the Developer tools window, click on Network, and select All.
Make sure Recording is onand that you clear the previous traffic
.
- Move to the room that you want to get the URL for (if it is your current room, click on the room to create network traffic that will show in the Developer Tools window).
- Select either keepalive or version. Then click on Headers and scroll down to find the Referer line.
- Copy the link from the Referer line and share it with your colleagues.
- Close the Developer tools window:
- In Windows/Linux, press Ctrl + Shift + I.
- In Mac, press Cmd + Opt + J.
