vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/
Horizon View Client is launched, and the user is taken to the login prompt for connecting to the
view.mycompany.com server.
6
vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/Primary%20Desktop?action=reset
Horizon View Client is launched and connects to the view.mycompany.com server. The login box prompts
the user for a user name, domain name, and password. After a successful login, Horizon View Client
displays a dialog box that prompts the user to confirm the reset operation for Primary Desktop. After
the reset occurs, depending on the type of client, the user might see a message indicating whether the
reset was successful.
NOTE This action is available only if the View administrator has enabled this feature for end users.
7
vmware-view://
If the client is already running, the Horizon View Client app comes to the foreground. If the client is not
already running, Horizon View Client is launched and the user sees the Recent Connections list, the
Servers list, or the Welcome page, depending on whether the user has ever used Horizon View Client
on the device and whether the client has previously connected to a server or a remote desktop.
HTML Code Examples
You can use URIs to make hypertext links and buttons to include in emails or on Web pages. The following
examples show how to use the URI from the first URI example to code a hypertext link that says, Test Link,
and a button that says, TestButton.
<html>
<body>
<a href="vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/Primary%20Desktop?action=start-session">Test
Link</a><br>
<form><input type="button" value="TestButton" onClick="window.location.href=
'vmware-view://view.mycompany.com/Primary%20Desktop?action=start-session'"></form> <br>
