Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops

Local App Access policy settings

The Local App Access section contains policy settings that manage the integration of users’ locally installed applications with hosted applications in a hosted desktop environment.

Allow Local App Access

This setting allows or prevents the integration of users’ locally installed applications with hosted applications within a hosted desktop environment.

When a user starts a locally installed application, that application appears to run within their virtual desktop, even though it is actually running locally.

If you set the Allow local app access policy setting to Enabled, browser content redirection isn’t supported.

By default, Local App Access is prohibited.

URL redirection block list

This setting specifies websites that are redirected to and started in the local Web browser. These websites might include websites requiring locale information, such as msn.com or newsgoogle.com, or websites containing rich media content that are better rendered on the user device.

By default, no sites are specified.

URL redirection allow list

This setting specifies websites that are rendered in the environment in which they are started.

By default, no sites are specified.
