SaaS User Guide

Collaboration Features

Genymotion SaaS offers collaboration features which enable teams to work more efficiently together from a single resource. This section explains how to use those collaboration features.

Custom recipe

Sharing a custom recipe

A custom recipe can only be shared by its owner.

To share a custom recipe:

The custom recipe is now available to the new users you have specified. In the meantime, a notification email is sent to them. They can access the shared custom recipe via that email, by signing in to Genymotion SaaS, and they can launch virtual devices from this recipe by copy-pasting the direct access link in the address bar.

The usage of the resource you share will count as your usage. When running virtual devices from one of your custom recipes, it will use one of your maximum concurrent device limits and will be metered like one of your devices.

A custom recipe can be created by saving a virtual device.

Using shared recipes

Once someone has shared a recipe with you, you receive a notification email from Genymotion SaaS.
