Hello all,


In this guide we will go over how to access Microsoft Visio for projects that require the use of the application. 


Pre-requisites:

  • AD (Active Directory) Username and Password
  • Web Browser (preferably Chrome)

* If you do not know or aren't sure about your AD Username and Password please put a ticket in at https://ractsol.freshdesk.com and if you need to expedite the ticket please feel free to reach out to me at aminnich@ractsol.com *


Instructions:

  • Access URL https://ractsol.work/#/userdashboard and log in using Active Directory credentials i.e. Username:joeShmoe@ractsol.work password:iloveractsol (NOTE: this is not an actual user and password)
  • Once logged in please go to the "workspaces" 
  • Then click the workspace labeled "Visio"
  • KASM will then prompt you with a window "Launch Visio" (this is your preference I prefer "new tab") 
  • You should then be greeted with another log in prompt this time for the VDI itself, log in with the same AD credentials MINUS "@ractsol.work" EXAMPLE Username:Joeshmoe Password:iloveractsol
  • You should now be inside of the VDI environment, you can now go to the Windows search bar and look up "Visio" and launch it!


Please let me know if you have any questions and/or concerns!
