Single sign-on to Citrix Secure Access client

Supported on: All Citrix Workspace supported platforms

Description

When this policy is enabled and when already signed on to Citrix Workspace app, the same user is single signed on to Citrix Secure Access client using the store configured on the Citrix Workspace app. When disabled, users are required to provide sign-in credentials on Citrix Secure Access app.

Registry

HKLM SOFTWARE\Policies\Citrix

Value name: EnableCwaToCsaSso

Enabled: EnableCwaToCsaSso = 1

Disabled: EnableCwaToCsaSso = 0

REG Builder

BETA

Configure the state and elements to generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune, and SCCM outputs.

These exports replicate the policy's registry effect. Editing the registry directly is not the same as applying the GPO through the management console (no gpupdate, no central reporting). Test before production; HKLM changes require administrator rights.
