Configure Environment Variables

  • To configure an Environment Variable that should be set when a session starts, go to Composition > Actions By Type > Environment Variables.
  • To configure an Environment Variable that should be set when an application starts, open the application at Applications and go to Configuration > Actions.
  • At Composition > Actions By Type > Environment Variables, the option Reset Environment Variables on refresh of workspace allows you to reset Environment Variables on a refresh of the user workspace. This ensures that connection state-dependent Environment Variables are resolved correctly.
  • You can override the global settings of this feature for specific Workspace Containers.
  • When configuring an Environment Variable, optionally enter a note in the Administrative note field. This is useful to differentiate the variables that you configured.
  • In the Value field, you can use Microsoft Windows environment variables and the functions $adinfo(<property>), $usershellfolder(<folder>), $substring, $endstring, $replacestring, $lowercase, $uppercase and $autocount.
  • When a session starts, the applicable Environment Variables are set in the order in which they appear in this list. If necessary, change the order to ensure the correct processing.
  • The Required connection state field specifies the required connection state that allows the setting to be applied. For example, this allows you to configure a setting that will only be applied if a computer has an online connection state.
  • Click the Access Control tab to configure the Access Control criteria of the environment variable.
  • Click the Workspace Control tab to configure to which Workspace Container(s) the environment variable applies.
