The Citrix Session: Simplify Citrix Workspace app Management with Global App Configuration service

The rise of remote and hybrid work has allowed users to access
their Citrix environments in increasingly diverse ways. To
support this rise in flexible working arrangements, employers are
now tasked with providing a seamless end-user experience across
an array of endpoints. This adds complexity to managing,
deploying, and standardizing Citrix Workspace app configurations
and upgrades. Outdated Workspace app versions can lead to version
drift, security vulnerabilities, discrepancies in capability, and
connectivity issues – all headaches for an administrator.


To address these issues, we introduced Citrix Global App
Configuration Service which offers a convenient and centralized
deployment solution for administrators delivering the Citrix
Workspace app across devices, domains, and operating systems.
Available via the Citrix Cloud console without additional
licensing, Global App Configuration Service enables Citrix
administrators to control and deploy Citrix Workspace app
configurations and settings — without depending on 3rd party
app-deployment tools across on-premise and cloud environments.
Citrix teams can now manage and upgrade the Citrix Workspace app
on any device accessing the Citrix environment, including BYO
devices.


It also provides a one-stop shop for administrators to apply
application settings such as agent management, session
resolution, and clipboard redirection for all end users accessing
the environment. 


Global App Configuration Service offers essential services to
streamline the admin and end-user experience of the Citrix
Workspace app. These services address several major use cases
such as email discovery of StoreFront/Workspace, centralized
Workspace agent management, and application configuration.
