Who is this article for?

Administrators who want to learn to install for Citrix/terminal services.

No elevated permissions are required.

This article explains how to install and configure the desktop software in a Citrix or terminal services environment.

1. Default behavior

By default, when installed in a Citrix or terminal services environment, the software will load for all users connected to the server.

2. Restricting access to specific users

You can configure the software to load only for a subset of users by naming specific users for inclusion or exclusion.

When a user starts the application, the UserAvailabilityList.xml file will be detected and evaluated to determine access.

Important: Only individual user credentials can be used. Active Directory groups are not supported.

3. Create the user availability list

1. Create an XML file named UserAvailabilityList.xml
2. Save the file to the program installation directory on the server (typically C:\Program Files\OnePlace Solutions)
3. Copy and paste the appropriate XML content and modify the list of users to include or exclude

You can edit the userList within the XML file to specify which programs the add-in should appear in or be hidden from.
