Overview

Labs allows administrators to select the specific applications that should be published to a Class desktop. Publishing an application means that a shortcut to launch the application will be created for all users of that Class.

For example, if students need to access the Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator applications, an administrator creates a new Class using the Adobe Creative Cloud image and only publishes those two specific applications. When students launch the Class, they will only see shortcuts for those two applications, even though the image contains other Creative Cloud applications.

Administrators can select the applications to publishing during the creation of a new Class in the Labs Admin Portal (labs-admin.itopia.com) or by editing an existing Class in the Admin Portal. If the published applications are changed for a Class, the change will be reflected in any new Labs sessions that are launched for that Class.
