You will need a built region to create a stack in.

A stack is how you create desktops in a region. This stack defines what kind of machine you wish to create and how many of them to keep up. Stacks are highly customizable: allowing you to build new machines at a set interval, designate how long a machine may be reserved for, and much more.

Follow the instructions below to create a stack:

  1. Your user will need to be added to the region to create resources. If you need help adding your user to the region see:

  2. Navigate to the region you wish to build a stack in, enter the Resources tab, and click Build Stack

  3. Choose your desired location from the dropdown menu and hit Continue

  4. Enter your desired details for your desktops and click Continue.

  5. Choose your desired desktop cycling settings. This will cause desktops to be rebuilt at designated times to ensure fresh machines. When you are ready click Continue

  6. Review to ensure your stack details are correct, and when you are ready click Build resource

  7. Your desktop(s) will begin building and will be available for use shortly (about 7-12 minutes).


    You just created your first stack! If you need to add users to your stack click below.
