Getting started in four steps

  1. Get your Innoactive Portal organization

    Request an organization from the Innoactive team. You receive admin credentials, a dedicated subdomain, and an empty workspace to invite users into.

    Request trial access

  2. Install the Portal Client on your device

    Pick the Portal Client for your hardware — Windows desktop, Meta Quest, HTC Vive, Pico, or Apple Vision Pro — and sign in with your Portal account.

    Jump to downloads

  3. Upload your application to Portal

    Package your Unreal Engine, Unity, or NVIDIA Omniverse build and upload it to your Portal organization so it appears in the launcher.

  4. Start a streaming session

    Open the client, pick the application, and Portal allocates cloud rendering hardware in the nearest region. Annotations, deep links, and user groups all work out of the box.

Innoactive Portal is the cloud-streaming platform that lets IT roll out spatial workflows the way they'd roll out any other enterprise app. The knowledge base below is organised by the journey teams typically take: get the first user streaming, plug in the engines and scenes you already use, lock down access, deploy at scale, then dial in the network. Skip ahead to the section that matches where you are.

Knowledge base

Set up your organization, invite users, pair headsets, and upload your first application to Innoactive Portal.

Getting started

Set up your Portal organization, invite the first users, upload an application, and pair a headset — the recommended starting path for new admins.

How to add a new user

Invite a user by email from the Control Panel, assign them to one or more user groups, and manage existing accounts when SSO is not enabled.

How to pair your device

Pair a headset to your Portal account with the six-digit code so any Portal app launches straight to the device.

How to upload an application on Portal

Upload an APK for standalone headsets or a ZIP with a Windows executable for streaming, then manage versions from the Portal Control Panel.

Best practices

Minimum network, application, and CloudXR/SteamVR settings every project must meet before going live on Portal — the checklist before opening a support ticket.

Day-to-day session control — personal servers, scheduling, hot machines, deep links, launch arguments, and collaborative streaming.

Start a personal streaming server

One-click personal cloud VM with your VR apps pre-installed and a six-hour session limit — for quick tests and short-notice demos with no admin setup.

Schedule and manage streaming sessions

Plan a Portal streaming session for a specific start and end time, invite multiple participants, and share a single confirmation link with all attendees.

How to prepare a streaming session in advance

Decide between a personal streaming server, a reserved hot machine, and a scheduled session with invites — and pick the right one for the use case.

How to auto-select VR or desktop access mode

Use the --portal-interface-mode launch argument to flip an app between its VR rig and desktop rig automatically based on how the user opens it on Portal.

Reserve a Hot machine with pre-installed applications

Pre-configure a cloud rendering machine for a defined time window and user group — minimal load time for client demos, training, and high-stakes streaming sessions.

How to create and use deep links

Generate URLs that launch a specific app or scene directly inside the Portal client on Quest, Vive, Pico, and Vision Pro.

How to use launch arguments

Pass user, session, device, and custom data to a VR app at launch time using Portal default arguments, executable arguments, or deep-link arguments.

Stream NVIDIA Omniverse Kit applications, author and ship OpenUSD content, and use Innoactive Portal as the launcher for your Omniverse stack.

USD Project Structure and File Organization Best Practices

Naming conventions, folder hierarchies, and layer organization that keep a multi-terabyte OpenUSD project searchable, mergeable, and collaboration-ready.

USD Layers and Variants: Mastering LIVRPS Composition

Master the LIVRPS composition order in OpenUSD to build variant systems that survive references, payloads, and sublayers without the yellow-V warning.

Variant Sets with Nested Animations in Actionscript

Embed animation curves inside OpenUSD VariantSets via ActionGraphs so Apple Vision Pro can auto-build menus that play smooth transitions between states.

Data Preparation Best Practices

Manage users, user groups, single sign-on, and per-application access control across your Portal organization.

Authentication and single sign on (SSO)

Enable email login, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, OpenID Connect, or SAML for Portal users — and combine providers in the same organization.

User groups and permissions

Group-based access model used in Portal — users inherit permissions from every group they belong to, with platform and per-application permissions managed separately.

How to implement Access Control Plugin for Portal

Add the Innoactive Access Control plugin to a Unity or Unreal build so the app only runs when launched through the Portal Desktop Client by an authorised user.

Access Control Plugin download

Download the Access Control Plugin packages for Unity and Unreal Engine versions 4.23 through 5.x to lock distributed builds to authorised Portal users.

Move users to a user group via API

Worked example using GET, POST, and DELETE on the Portal /groups/<id>/users/ endpoint to move users between groups in bulk from a script.

Roll Innoactive Portal out to a fleet — MDM provisioning, sideloading, enterprise stores, client updates, and event preparation.
