* **Clipboard redirection**. If this option is selected, when you copy plain or formatted text to the clipboard on your Android device, that text is also available in the clipboard on the remote server, and vice versa.
* **Open URLs on**. Tap this menu to specify where you want to open "http(s)://" links: on your Android device or on a remote server.
* **Open mail links on**. Tap this menu to specify where you want to open "mailto:" links: on your Android device or on a remote server.
* **Redirect pen input.** Select this option to enable or disable pen input redirection with pressure sensitivity support.
* **Sound redirection.** Specify how the sound should be handled. You can choose one of the following:

  * **Do not play**. Select this option to disable sound.
  * **Play on device**. Select this option to redirect sound from the remote server to your Android device.
  * **Play on remote computer**. Select this option to play sound on the remote server.

  Select the **Recording (if applicable)** option to enable audio recording.
* **Camera redirection.** Specifies video capture devices to redirect from a user device to the remote session. This is a high-level redirection that allows redirecting a composite USB device, such as a webcam with a microphone. You can select the following options:
  * **Limit camera resolution to 720p** to save data.
* **Create desktop shortcuts automatically**. If configured in the Parallels RAS settings, published applications may create desktop shortcuts on your Android device. When you tap such a shortcut, Parallels Client starts automatically, connects to Parallels RAS, and the application opens. However, if your desktop is already overcrowded with different icons and you don't want any new ones, you can choose not to create desktop shortcuts by deselecting this option.
* **Share folder**. Select this option to enable importing files and folders from the Android device storage to the remote server. A network disk called `Files on %device name%` will appear on the remote server, where `%device name%` is the name of your Android device. For information on how to import files, see the [**Application Toolbar**](/landing/ras-android-client-guide/work-with-a-remote-server/remote-application-server-connection/application-toolbar.md) section.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/ras-android-client-guide/edit-connection-settings/advanced-settings/local-resources.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
