Automatic single sign-on to Citrix SecurAccess through Citrix Workspace app for Mac

Last published : Nov 12, 2026
Important:
Citrix Secure Access is now called Citrix SecurAccess™. We are updating our documentation and the UI screenshots to reflect this name change.
Starting from Citrix SecurAccess™ for macOS 24.03.1, a login to Citrix Workspace app can single sign-on (SSO) end-users to Citrix SecurAccess client, establish a user tunnel, and seamlessly provide access to TCP/UDP applications. If the end-users are connected to Citrix Workspace app, Citrix SecurAccess for macOS is automatically launched and the end-users can seamlessly log on using single sign-on.
When end-users log out of Citrix Workspace app, Citrix SecurAccess automatically logs out without user intervention. This feature saves time as end-users are expected to log on to just one application, thereby providing a unified experience.
Currently, this functionality is disabled, by default.

Pre-requisites

  1. End-users must be using Citrix Workspace app 2402 or later. For details about installation of Citrix Workspace app for Mac, see Citrix Workspace app for Mac.
  2. End-users must be using Citrix SecurAccess for macOS 24.03.1 or later.
  3. To enable this feature through MDM, admins must use the following settings:
    • <key>EnableSecureAccessAutoLogin</key><true/>

Points to note

  • If end-users are already logged on to Citrix Workspace app before enabling this functionality, they must re-login so that Citrix Workspace app can trigger SSO to Citrix SecurAccess client.
  • When there is a logoff from Citrix Workspace app due to reasons such as a timeout or manual user logout, Citrix SecurAccess is also logged out and the user session is disconnected (this is only if Citrix SecurAccess was automatically launched via Citrix Workspace app).
  • SSO login from Citrix Workspace app to Citrix SecurAccess is supported only on a single primary domain. SSO on multiple domains is not supported.
  • If you switch your Citrix Workspace app connection to a different URL after being single signed on to Citrix SecurAccess through this feature, you are prompted to choose your Citrix Workspace app connection URL.
