StoreFront

Authentication methods

To configure the authentication methods available for a store, see Configure Authentication. You can override some of these settings for a particular web site. These overrides only apply using Citrix Workspace app for HTML5 through a web browser. Locally installed Citrix Workspace app uses the settings from the store rather than the web site.

Warning: Any time you change the authentication methods for a store, this overrides the settings for all websites for that store so any changes must be re-applied.

To modify authentication methods, go to Edit Receiver for web site and select the Authentication Methods tab.

  • Select Domain pass-through to enable pass-through of Active Directory domain credentials from users’ devices. See Domain pass-through authentication. This option is only available if it has been enabled for the store.
  • Select Smart card to enable smart card authentication. See Smart card authentication.
