Horizon HTML5 Smartcard (Cherry-Keyboard) not working

Dirk6 — Sat, 27 Nov 2021 18:49:26 GMT

Hallo,

i cant use the smartcard-reader of the cherry-keyboard. The smartcard is needed to authenticate against the lancrypt application inside the VDI-Client.

Is it possible to use the integrated smartcard-reader of the cherry keyboard over HTML5 - Browser connection?

Thanks

Dirk

Please refer to the below URL. SmartCard is not supported with HTML5

Yes, It' not supported for Horizon HTML Access for now as SurajRoy shared, and there is no plan to support it in near future.
We have other Horizon Clients running on different platforms that can support SmartCard redirection for remote apps inside VDI, please check the docs accordingly.

If there is any blocker for using other Horizon Clients, and SmartCard with Horizon HTML Access must be used in the setup, please reach the support/sales team to get further assistants.
