Identity and Access in the Citrix Cloud management plane just got redesigned.

It’s now easier to provide your administrators and end users with the unique secure access they need to manage environments and get work done.

Take a look at the new UI enhancements through a simple Active Directory setup.

  1. Sign in to the Citrix Cloud management plane:
  2. Navigate to the Identity Management page by clicking on the Navigation Menu and selecting Identity and Access Management: 


    This is where you can connect your Active Directory. In the previous UI, there wasn’t a clear way to know what the Active Directory status was. Now, all of the Active Directory information is easily identified and is clearly listed.

  3. Also new, is the ability to quickly find all actions in the context menu to the right of the identity provider status. Click on the context menu and then click Connect:
  4. Follow the instructions for installing the Citrix Cloud Connector and click Install Connector.
    • After deploying at least one machine, click Detect:
  5. Active Directory is now connected. Click on Return to Authentication to go back to the Identity and Access Management page:
    Notice on the right-hand side below, Active Directory is now enabled and new actions are available. Since at least two connectors are recommended for high availability and only one was installed, a warning icon is displayed next to the Active Directory name, along with quick actions next to the AD details to download the connector installer and detect if new connectors were installed:
