Access your Resources
When you sign in to the Remote Desktop Web client, you'll see your workspaces. A workspace combines all the desktops and applications that have been made available to you by your admin. You sign in by following these steps:
- Open your web browser.
- Go to the following URL: https://client.wvd.microsoft.com/arm/webclient/
- Sign in with your user account. Once you've signed in successfully, your workspaces should show the desktops and applications that have been made available to you by your admin.
- Select one of the icons to launch a session to Azure Virtual Desktop. You may be prompted to enter the password for your user account again, depending on how your admin has configured Azure Virtual Desktop.
- A prompt for Access local resources may be displayed asking you to confirm which local resources you want to be available in the remote session. Make your selection, then select Allow.
