Horizon View 6 and Kiosk Mode via URL

[heimdm]

I want to automate logging in to desktops via URL.

I found the following syntax to access a desktop: VMware-view://<fqn>/<desktop-name>?desktopProtocol. Is there a way to pass in username, password, domain so a user is not prompted?

I want to do that with the thick client and HTML5/blast.

For HTML5/Blast, you can connect to your desktop via different parameters of URI:

https://{broker address}/?domainNam=xxx&userName=xxx&desktopId=xxxxx&action=start-session

The password is not supported by URI, please refer Using HTML Access guide for more information.

For native client, URI supports to pass username, domain and protocol, but it doesn't support to pass password.

Example:

vmware-view://username@server.com/desktopname?domainName=domainname&desktopProtocol=protocol-name

If you want to SSO for remote desktop via URI, you can configure SAML Authentication.

Example:

vmware-view://username@server.com/desktopname?domainName=domainname&desktopProtocol=protocol&SAMLAuth=abcdef123456

Thanks.
