The administrator can use the Global App Configuration service for Citrix Workspace to deliver Citrix Enterprise Browser settings through a centrally managed service.
The Global App Configuration service is designed for administrators to easily configure Citrix Workspace and manage the Citrix Workspace app settings. This feature allows admins to use the Global App Configuration Service to apply various settings or system policies to the Citrix Enterprise Browser on a particular store.
The administrator can now configure and manage the following Citrix Enterprise Browser settings using the Global App Configuration service:. The default new value is No, use the native resolution , also known as DPI matching. When you select this option, Citrix Workspace app attempts to match display resolution and DPI scale settings of the local Windows client to the HDX session automatically.
DPI matching is recommended in all cases, especially when high-resolution monitors above x are in use. The Yes option, also known as Client-side scaling or compatibility mode is only recommended for legacy applications that are not DPI-aware and should only be used in special circumstances.
This option might introduce some side effects while displaying the legacy apps, like blurry text because of the upscaling or stretching of the HDX session. By enabling this feature, you can open your previously disconnected desktops instantly.
Once this feature is enabled, Citrix Workspace app launches the disconnected sessions in hidden mode. The session is instantly presented as soon as you launch the desktop. Administrators can control the version by setting the range in the maximumAllowedVersion and minimumAllowedVersion properties in the Global App Config Service.
If you want to auto-update Citrix Workspace app to a specific version, enter the same version in the maximumAllowedVersion and minimumAllowedVersion properties in the Global App Config Service. You can provide feedback on this feature via the Podio form. It made the users assume that the launch is stuck and close the dialog, as the notification messages were quite static.

This feature is also supported on Workspace for Web. Users can view meaningful notifications about the launch progress, instead of just a spinner. If a launch is in progress and the user attempts to close the browser, a warning message is shown.

Citrix Workspace app now ensures that no unauthorized dynamic-link libraries DLL or untrusted modules get access to the session.

It also improves the user experience, provided the same IdP is used for authentication to both the Workspace app and the particular web or SaaS app being launched.
For example, if you have set a speaker as the Secondary ringer and your endpoint is connected to headphones, Microsoft Teams sends the incoming call signal to the speaker even though your headphones are the primary peripheral for the audio call itself.
