Integration of Secure Private Access with Web Studio

Introduction

Starting from 2407, when you click the Secure Private Access link in the Web Studio, the Secure Private Access console opens within the Web Studio console.

Previously, the Secure Private Access console opened in a different tab when it was accessed from Web Studio.

To view the Secure Private Access console within the Web Studio, you must perform the following two steps:

  • Edit the spa-config file to add the Secure Private Access server
  • Enable single sign-on for the Secure Private Access console

Edit the spa-config file

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Citrix\Web Studio\Sites\studio\assets\json and modify the content of the spa-config.json file.
  2. In the <SpaServer>, add your Secure Private Access server URL and add <“styleIsolation”: false> and save the file.

    Edit SPA config file

  3. Refresh the Web Studio console.
  4. The Secure Private Access tab shows in the Web Studio.

Enable single sign on for Secure Private Access console

When you click the Secure Private Access tab inside the Web Studio UI, the Secure Private Access console must open directly. Instead, it navigates the user to a login page. To avoid this and to enable single sign-on, perform the following steps:

  1. Go to C:\Program Files\Citrix\Citrix Access Security\Admin\AdminService and modify the content in the appsettings file.
  2. In the <AllowedOrigins> parameter, provide the Web Studio URL to allow all the traffic from Web Studio inside Secure Private Access and save the file.
