Local App Access seamlessly integrates locally installed Windows applications into a hosted desktop environment without switching from one desktop to another. With Local App Access, you can:.

URL redirection works only for desktop sessions, not application sessions. The only redirection feature you can use for application sessions is host-to-client content redirection, which is a type of server FTA File Type Association redirection. For example, if you only open embedded links with HTTP, the links directly open with the client application.

There is no URL block list or allow list support. When Local App Access is enabled, URLs that are displayed to users as links from locally running applications, from user-hosted applications, or as shortcuts on the desktop are redirected in one of the following ways:. Those lists contain multi-string registry keys that specify the URL redirection policy settings.

For more information, see the Local App Access policy settings. FTA starts local applications when a file is encountered in the session. If the local app is started, the local app must have access to the file to open it. Therefore, you can only open files that reside on network shares or on client drives using client drive mapping using local applications. Because the local app can access the file directly, there is no network transfer of the file through ICA to open the file.

The following browsers are supported:. To enable URL redirection for all local applications during Citrix Workspace app installation, follow these steps:. To the Registry Editor, see The Local App Access for published applications in the list of features managed through the registry.

The Local Application Access wizard launches with an Introduction page, which you can remove from future launches of the wizard. The wizard guides you through the Groups, Location, Identification, Delivery, and Summary pages described below.

When you are finished with each page, click Next until you reach the Summary page. On the Groups page, select one or more Delivery Groups where the new applications will be added, and then click Next. On the Identification page, accept the default values or type the information that you want and then click Next. On the Delivery page, configure how this application is delivered to users and then click Next.

You can specify the icon for the selected application. You can also specify whether the shortcut to the local application on the virtual desktop is visible on the Start menu, the desktop, or both.

On the Summary page, review the settings and then click Finish to exit the Local Application Access wizard. For example, the following command registers Internet Explorer add-ons on a device running the Citrix Workspace app. For URL redirection to work correctly, enable the add-on when prompted by the browser. If the add-ons that are using Internet options or the add-ons in the prompt are disabled, URL redirection does not work correctly. When an add-on is installed, Firefox prompts to allow or prevent installing the add-on on a new tab page.

Allow the add-on for the feature to work. The extensions have been installed externally. When you disable the extension, the URL redirection feature does not work in Chrome. Upon the first run, when you navigate to Workspace.

All devices have the receiver installed so I assume its just a matter of associating the receiver to Edge ie getting Edge to see it. Is there an Edge GPO responsible for this or does the solution reside in the registry? Any help with making a seamless experience for the user to open workspace and it will open without any prompts is the goal here.

If i manually accpet all the prompted everything is working perfectly so this is the last piece of the puzzle. I thank you in advance for any help and am still new to GPOs so keep that in mind. You might want to configure the "Define a list of allowed URLs" policy like below:. Hey thank you so much for your response.

I actually came across your articles last week and found them very helpful, I have the Enterprise mode working, and all over security baselines, however even with the URL added to the policy I am still prompted for a "install receiver" when I navigate to the workspace storefront.

Is that how you are running it? You can view the Files tab only if Content Collaboration Service is enabled in the Workspace configuration from the Citrix Cloud console.

Citrix Workspace app is instrumented to securely transmit data to Citrix Analytics Service from ICA sessions that you launch from a browser. The relative mouse feature determines how far the mouse has moved since the last frame within a window or screen.

The relative mouse uses the pixel delta between the mouse movements. When you change, for example, the direction of the camera using mouse controls, the feature is efficient. Relative mouse support provides an option to interpret the mouse position in a relative rather than an absolute manner.

The interpretation is required for applications that demand relative mouse input rather than absolute. You can configure the feature both on a per-user and a per-session basis, which gives more granular control on the feature availability.

A user who logs on locally to a computer that is acting as a virtual desktop, blocks connection to that desktop. Device mapping checks if the desktop devices are mapped consistently within desktop and application sessions.

Because local drives are displayed as network drives in desktop sessions, the virtual apps administrator needs to change the drive-mapping policy to include network drives. You can change the amount of time the status indicator displays when a user is launching a session.

When you configure this key, the status indicator might appear and disappear frequently. This behavior is as designed. To suppress the status indicator, do the following:.
