IT Asset Management (Cloud)

The Citrix Cloud adapter is available in the FlexNet Beacon UI from IT Asset Management 2022 R2 onwards.

The Citrix Cloud adapter requires the following:

• Any version of Citrix Remote PowerShell SDK installed onto the beacon.
• Create at least one delivery group that will provide VDIs to users.
• Install the FlexNet Inventory Agent. It is recommended that you install the FlexNet Inventory Agent onto the VDI template to ensure inventory from at least one VDI device can be collected per delivery group, unless another inventory source is providing software inventory from the VDI devices.
  Tip: The "VDI template" terminology is used in the IT Asset Management UI. For customers not familiar with this terminology, the "VDI template" can also be referred to as the "golden image virtual machine".
• An inventory beacon (or multiple if required) that collects Active Directory data from the domain where the users are located who have been given access to a delivery group.
• Configure a connection in the FlexNet Beacon UI to Citrix Cloud. See Creating the Citrix Cloud Connection.
• PowerShell 5.0 or higher on the beacon where the Citrix Cloud adapter is set up.
• Read-only Citrix Cloud account rights are the minimum permissions required to log in and generate the API Key for the integration to work.
  Important: API clients inherit the permissions of the administrator that creates them. For example, if an administrator has limited access, the API client's access is similarly restricted. In this instance, it is recommended that you create a Citrix Admin account with read-only permissions and subsequently log in as a read-only admin to create the API client.
