# Accessing Windows 365 Cloud PCs Using Splashtop Secure Workspace

Splashtop Secure Workspace supports secure RDP access to Windows 365 Cloud PCs using manually input credentials. This document outlines the steps required to configure and enable this access.

---

## Prerequisites

- A **Windows 365 Cloud PC** instance provisioned and accessible
- An active **SSW environment**
- A user account with permissions to create and manage private applications in SSW

---

## 🛠 Step-by-Step Setup

### 1. Install the SSW Connector on the Cloud PC

1. Log in to the **Windows 365 Cloud PC**.
2. [Deploy the **SSW Connector**](/v1/docs/deploy-connector).
3. Ensure the connector is running and online in the SSW Portal.

---

### 2. Configure a Private Application for RDP Access

1. In the SSW  Portal, navigate to **Applications**.
2. Click **Add Application** -> **Add Private Application** and configure the following:
  - **Name**: e.g., `Cloud PC - John`
  - **Protocol**: `RDP`
  - **Host**: Local IP or hostname of the Cloud PC
  - **Port**: `3389`
  - **Relay type**: `Connector`
  - **Connector**: Select the one installed on the Cloud PC

1. Open **Settings** → **System** → **Remote Desktop**.
2. Click **Advanced Settings**.
3. **Turn off** the option:

`Require devices to use Network Level Authentication to connect`. ![image.png](https://cdn.document360.io/efce33ac-4fef-4586-80ea-16e488013376/Images/Documentation/image%2873%29.png)

This setting is necessary for SSW's secure tunnel to establish a compatible RDP session.

---

### 4. Notes on Dynamic Credentials

For Dynamic Credentials usage, ensure the username is entered in the correct format:

```
${domain}\${username}
```

This format is required for SSW to successfully inject credentials during the RDP session.

To find the correct `${domain}\${username}` value:

1. Log in to the target Windows machine.
2. Go to:

**Settings** → **System** → **Remote Desktop** → **Remote Desktop Users**
3. Check the listed user accounts and their domain association.
