Details of the issue
What was your system configuration?
Product and Version : VSCode 1.85.1 (Universal)
OS Version : Apple M1 Silicon Chip MacOS14.1.1 (23B81)
Live Share Extension Version: v1.0.5900
Target Platform or Language : Node.js
Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:
Go to 'Live Share Extension Control Panel Session Details'
Click on 'JOIN'
Paste the copied session address
See error "Invalid collaboration session URL"
Live Share Log has been exported, it is in the attachments.
The screenshot showing the problem is in the attachments.
I can see how this could be confusing.
To open in VS Code desktop, the invitation link should look like this https://prod.liveshare.vsengsaas.visualstudio.com/join?ABCD1234.
The url shown in your screenshot is what is used to access the session from a web browser.
So, copy the format I mentioned above and replace the id with your new session id to connect. Or, ask the host to re-send the invitiation link which has the same format I mentioned above.
Closing this as stale but please comment to clarify your use case if you continue to see an issue.
