VPC Sharing for Workspace
Scenario
When you purchase a cloud desktop or cloud desktop pool, VPC sharing allows you to use the VPCs and subnets shared by other accounts and manage network resources in a unified manner. This feature improves resource management efficiency and reduces O&M costs.
For example, to simplify network resource management, you can use one account to manage IT network resources, such as VPCs and subnets, of other accounts. Suppose you have three accounts (A, B, and C):
- Account A: the IT management account and the resource owner. You can use it to create a VPC and share subnets in it with other accounts.
- Account B: a service account that uses resources. In this example, you can use it to create cloud desktops in Subnet-02 shared by account A.
- Account C: a service account that uses resources. In this example, you can use it to create cloud desktops in Subnet-03 shared by account A.

This section describes how to purchase a cloud desktop in a shared VPC. For details about VPC subnet sharing, see in the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
Constraints
- For details about the constraints on VPC sharing, see in the Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
- When using VPC sharing with Direct Connect access enabled, you need to create a dedicated load balancer as the Direct Connect access address.
- If you need to create a new shared VPC, see .
Procedure
- Log in to the console.
- Configure parameters required for purchasing a cloud desktop.
When configuring Network, select the VPC and subnet shared by account A.

If you no longer need to access resources that are shared with you, you can at any time.
