Browser Redirection Extension (Beta)

The Browser Redirection Extension (Beta) by Citrix Systems Inc. is a Chrome extension that allows redirection of webpages in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops sessions. It offers two key features: Browser Content Redirection and Bidirectional URL Redirection.

Browser Content Redirection redirects webpages from a browser running on the virtual desktop to the Citrix Workspace App embedded browser on the client device. This prevents the execution/rendering of whitelisted web pages in the virtual desktop, instead rendering the URL locally on the user’s device.

Bidirectional URL Redirection redirects webpages from a browser running on the virtual desktop to the default browser on the client device, and vice versa. Administrators can configure the list of URLs to be redirected via server and client policies.

To participate in the beta, users can try out new features and provide early feedback to help improve the Browser Redirection Extension. It is important to note that the beta version should not be installed alongside the current version of the extension.

Please refer to the Citrix documentation for detailed system requirements and installation instructions.

Overall, the Browser Redirection Extension (Beta) offers valuable redirection capabilities for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops users, enhancing the browsing experience within virtual sessions.
