Connect Active Directory to Citrix Cloud Government

By default, Citrix Cloud Government uses the Citrix Cloud Government Identity provider to manage the identity information for all users in your Citrix Cloud account. You can change the identity provider to use Active Directory (AD) instead.

Connecting your on-premises Active Directory to Citrix Cloud Government involves installing Cloud Connectors in your domain. Citrix recommends installing two Cloud Connectors for high availability. For requirements and instructions, see Citrix Cloud Connector requirements.
