Citrix DaaS REST APIs

How to get details of the App-V servers, packages, and isolation groups configured in Citrix DaaS

Use REST APIs to get details about the Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) servers, packages, and isolation groups configured within your Citrix DaaS (formerly Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service) site.

Follow the prerequisites and examples to get started with this API.

You can make API requests using the PowerShell code, C# code, Python, or any tool that supports invoking the REST API.

Prerequisites to get details of the App-V servers, packages, and isolation groups

  • Read the Get started with Citrix Cloud APIs section to ensure that you have the bearer token.
  • Get siteid from How to get site id API.
  • Invoke the API described in this document from a client host or from the API exploration tab to get the App-V servers, packages, and isolation groups.
