How to Invite Another AnyDesk User to Connect

If you need to invite another AnyDesk user to connect with you, you have two main options to do so.

Email Invitation

If you are using a desktop-based pre-AnyDesk 7 client, you can easily generate an email invitation containing your AnyDesk-ID or Alias, along with a link to our website. With AnyDesk 7 and newer, this function can be accessed by right-clicking your AnyDesk-ID and selecting “Invite via email…”. Recipients of this email can simply copy and paste the ID into their AnyDesk client and click “Connect” to initiate the connection.

Direct Invitation

With the release of AnyDesk 7, we introduced the capability to send direct invitations to other AnyDesk 7 and newer clients. This can be initiated by clicking the invitation icon next to your AnyDesk-ID. This method enables you to specify the user’s ID or Alias and choose which profile or permissions will be granted to them during the session.

Subsequently, the invited user will receive a notification in their AnyDesk client and a pop-up at the bottom right corner of their main display. They will then have the option to accept or reject the connection. It is important to note that the invitation has a time-limit of 2 minutes.

You can also right-click a tile in Favorites, Recent Sessions, Discovery, or the Address Book and select “Invite” to initiate the session invitation.

By offering these two options, AnyDesk facilitates seamless and secure connections for its users.
