How many concurrent sessions are allowed for whiteboarding?
Hello all,
I have a question how many concurrent sessions (or users) are allowed for white boading on Surface Hub.
In addition, Is there any public information regarding this question?
Best Regards,

- Hi Sachiko
As far as I can see, there is no public documentation that explicitly states the limit for the number of users that can join a collaboration session in Whiteboard.
Given that the current version only supports Surface Hub, I’m doubtful anyone would be able to reach its theoretical limit anyway! We’ve managed to get to 4 in a single session before, and that was just for testing purposes.
With the new app in a preview I imagine this may be higher with laptops joining the session.
While I have no actual idea how they made it, common sense suggests they may use a typical 1 byte integer for participants, so a theoretical maximum of 255 is likely.

Sorry for my delayed reply.
I really appreciate for your answer!

I know your post was 9 months ago, but I was googling around for the same answer and came across your post.
We are about to do a test with ~25 participants. Will report back on how it goes.
