URI Specification
Use the following syntax to create URIs to start Horizon Client:
vmware-view://[authority-part][/path-part][?query-part]
The only required element is the URI scheme, vmware-view. For some versions of some client operating
systems, the scheme name is case-sensitive. Therefore, use vmware-view.
Important In all parts, non-ASCII characters must first be encoded according to UTF-8 [STD63], and
then each octet of the corresponding UTF-8 sequence must be percent-encoded to be represented as
URI characters.
For information about encoding for ASCII characters, see the URL encoding reference at
http://www.utf8-chartable.de/.
authority-part Specifies the server address and, optionally, a user name, a non-default
port number, or both. Underscores (_) are not supported in server names.
Server names must conform to DNS syntax.
To specify a user name, use the following syntax:
user1@server-address
You cannot specify a UPN address, which includes the domain. To specify
the domain, you can use the domainName query part in the URI.
To specify a port number, use the following syntax:
server-address:port-number
path-part Specifies the desktop or application. Use the desktop display name or
application display name. This name is the one specified in Horizon
Administrator when the desktop or application pool was created. If the
display name has a space in it, use the %20 encoding mechanism to
represent the space.
query-part Specifies the configuration options to use or the desktop or application
actions to perform. Queries are not case-sensitive. To use multiple queries,
use an ampersand (&) between the queries. If queries conflict with each
other, the last query in the list is used. Use the following syntax:
query1=value1[&query2=value2...]
