AppSyncURL Parameter

The AppSyncURL parameter sets the Web server URL or fileshare location that stores the updated version of an application. Omnissa ThinApp checks this location and downloads the updated package.

Application Sync works over the HTTP (unsecure), HTTPS (secure), and File protocols. Part of the HTTPS protocol involves checking the identity of the Web server. You can include a user name and a password in the AppSyncURL parameter for basic authentication. ThinApp adheres to the standard Internet Explorer proxy setting.

Note: You must uncomment the AppSyncURL parameter to activate all Application Sync parameters.

Assigning values to AppSyncURL Parameter

You can assign an HTTP or HTTPS value to the AppSyncURL parameter according to the following format.

AppSyncURL=https://<site.com>/<path>/<primary_data_container_name>

You can specify local and network drive paths. A primary data container can be either a .exe or .dat file.

file:///C:/<path>/<primary_data_container_name>

You can use a UNC path and access locations of network resources.

file://<server>/<share>/<path>/<primary_data_container_name>
