Google Chrome Citrix Workspace App
- The removal of NPAPI support will affect user experience for users who access Citrix Receiver for Web using the Chrome browser on Windows and Mac. Users will be prompted to install Citrix Receiver every time they access the Receiver for web site. An ICA file will be saved when users try to launch an application or desktop.
- Today, Citrix Receiver from chrome web store can be configured using.cr files. The.cr file exported from Storefront doesn't have rfweb entry and admin needs to add the entry and distribute the file to various users. Receiver for Chrome can be configured using.cr file using Deploy Receiver for Chrome to your users.
- Citrix Receiver for Chrome App.
Hello All,
I have been tasked with configuring/deploying our MS-Edge GPO for thousands of devices and that will include the citrix storefront. I am running into two issue I cant seem to find answers for. Keep in mind we are talking about the new chromium based Edge v86. I have the most current admx files and such.
1. Upon the first run, when you navigate to Workspace.domain.com you are prompted to install or detect the Citrix Receiver. 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?
2. Once you click through, you are prompted,
'This site is trying to open Citrix Receiver Launcher.
https://workspace.domain.com wants to open this application.
Always allow workspace.domain.com to open links of the type in the associated app.'
I have two policies I thought that would take care of that.
- UC/Policies/Admin Temp/Edge/ Show an 'Always open' checkbox in external protocol dialog' - set to Enabled
Google Citrix Receiver
- UC/Policies/Admin Temp/Edge/Define a list of protocols that can launch an external application from listed origins without prompting the user - set to enabled. (I found this solution here: https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX285038) I have the format as stated in the article but maybe I didnt do it correctly?
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.
2. Access Netscaler Access Gateway URL in Chrome and login with user credential, You should get below “Detect Receiver” page.
3. Click “Detect Receiver” button and wait, you should see Chrome “External Protocol Request” dialog window pop up.
Note: Verify urlreceiver://<AG FQDN>/Citrix/…, Verify the client machine can resolve the AG FQDN to correct IP address.
4. Click “Launch Application” button, the expected output is, “Just a moment, we’re detecting if…” and then automatically redirects to Storefront resource enumeration page with resources listed, or Storefront login page (you might need to re-enter user credential and click “Logon” button).
Important Note:
- If “Just a moment, we’re detecting if…” webpage doesn’t auto redirects to enumeration/login page of storefront, please click “Detect again” button to try again.
- If “Just a moment, we’re detecting if…” webpage doesn't redirect to storefront web page, it means the configuration for Citrix WebHelper invoked mode failed. In this situation, user can click “Already installed” to continue, Chrome will work in Citrix WebHelper NOT invoked mode.
