File type association
Google Drive access
With Google drive support, users can open, edit, and save Windows file types from a Chrome device that runs Citrix Workspace. While running a Google Chrome device, users can seamlessly use existing Windows-based applications (for example, Microsoft Word) and access the files residing on Google Drive.
If a user opens a file in Google Drive, edits it, and saves it Drive, the same file can be accessed through the Citrix Virtual Apps hosted application. For example, a .docx file attachment downloaded from Gmail. The file can be viewed, edited, and saved to Google Drive.
Prerequisites
To enable Google Drive access, you must install the Citrix File Access component (FileAccess.exe) on your VDA and enable file type associations in Citrix Studio. You can download Citrix File Access from the Citrix downloads page.
To enable Google Drive access from Citrix Workspace
- Install
FileAccess.exe on each Citrix Virtual Apps or Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS VDA.

https://accounts.google.com and <https://ssl.gstatic.com>. You can do it on the Citrix Virtual Apps or Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS VDA.
Only files from Google Drive can be opened using Citrix Workspace. To open a file from Google Drive, right-click and open the file using Citrix Workspace.
Citrix recommends that you associate one file type with only one published application.
