Allow Favorites

Customers who have access toWorkspace Configurationand the new Workspace experience can allow subscribers to favorite and unfavorite app and desktop resources. TheAllow Favoritesfeature is enabled by default.

Note:

• For some existing customers (new to Workspace between December 2017 and April 2018),Allow Favoritesdefaults toDisabled. The administrator can decide when to enable this feature for their subscribers.
• Allow Favoritesdoesn’t affect the ability to favorite files. The ability to favorite files persists regardless of whetherAllow Favoritesis enabled or disabled inWorkspace Configuration.

The subscriber experience of Allow Favorites

When enabled (default), subscribers can add up to 250Favoritesusing the star icon at the top left-hand corner of each (non-mandatory) app and desktop card. The star changes from having no fill to a yellow fill when it’s favorited.

我f a subscriber favorites more than 250 resources, the “oldest favorite” is removed (or as close as possible to preserve the most recentFavorites).

When disabled, workspace subscribers don’t see stars on app and desktop cards, or theAll AppsandFavoritessubmenus for these resources in the navigation bar. App and desktopFavoritesaren’t deleted and can be recovered if you re-enableFavorites.

Note:

我f your subscribers do not have access to desktops configured, the desktop selection in the sidebar does not display.

App and desktop keywords

Administrators can automatically addFavorite Appsfor subscribers by usingKEYWORDS:AutoandKEYWORDS:Mandatorysettings in Citrix DaaS (Manage>Full Configuration>Applications).

• KEYWORDS:Auto. The app or desktop is added as aFavoriteand subscribers can remove theFavorite.

• KEYWORDS:Mandatory. The app or desktop is added as aFavorite, and subscribers can’t remove theFavorite. Mandatory apps and desktops display a star icon with a padlock to indicate that it can’t be unfavorited.

  

Note:

我f you use bothMandatoryandAutokeywords for an app, theMandatorykeyword overrides theAutokeyword, and the favorited app or desktop can’t be removed.

For a subscriber with access only to apps and desktops that have theMandatorykeyword:

• The subscriber sees only theAppspage in the left navigation pane in Workspace. TheFavoritepage doesn’t appear in the left pane because there’s no difference in the apps that appear on theAppspage and theFavoritepage.

• The subscriber doesn’t see theFavoritetab on the home page. Only theRecentstab is shown.

To enable Citrix Workspace to launch desktops automatically, subscribers accessing the site through Internet Explorer must add the Workspace URL to the Local intranet or Trusted sites zones.

Federated identity provider sessions

When Workspace is configured to use a federated identity provider, the authentication session and its lifetime are typically controlled by the identity provider. TheFederated Identity Provider Sessionssetting allows the control to be handed off to the Service Provider. When enabled (default), Workspace forces a sign-in prompt with the identity provider when a new Workspace session is needed. When disabled, a subscriber will not be prompted to authenticate with the identity provider if accessing Workspace with a valid session.

我f this setting is enabled and you’re using Azure AD for workspace authentication, subscribers might be prompted to sign in again even if a valid Microsoft authentication token exists for their session. For more information about this scenario, seeCTX253779.
