Enable a ThinApp package for use in Omnissa Access

You can use Omnissa Access Desktop application to deliver Omnissa ThinApp packages to end users. Using Omnissa Access Desktop, you can assign a ThinApp package to a specific person or a group of people.

A URL field is present in the Setup Capture wizard that allows you to supply the Omnissa Access URL of your organization. If the Omnissa Access Desktop application is not installed on the desktop, when the user tries to start the ThinApp package, this URL leads to Omnissa Access, which initiates the installation of the Omnissa Access Desktop application. Entering a value in this URL allows the Omnissa Access Desktop application to be automatically installed.

Note: If you enable the ThinApp package for Omnissa Access, the Setup Capture - Groups wizard page is skipped because Omnissa Access manages the entitlement of users to the ThinApp package. In Omnissa Access, you can set up package entitlement of Active Directory users or groups of a Horizon 7 group that you create.

The ThinApp package can also be enabled by editing the package.ini file for the following parameters: AppID, NotificationDLL, and HorizonOrgURL. These three parameters must be added to the [BuildOptions] section of the package.ini file. For more information about the parameters, see the Omnissa ThinApp Package.ini Parameters Reference Guide at Omnissa Product Documentation.

For more information about how to configure ThinApp packages in the Omnissa Access console, see the Configure ThinApp Packages in Omnissa Access section in the Setting Up Resources in Omnissa Access documentation at Omnissa Product Documentation.
