Citrix DaaS REST APIs
How to get icons from Citrix DaaS
Use REST APIs to get all or conditional icons from your Citrix DaaS (formerly Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service) site. Icons are used for creating applications in the site.
You can specify the desired icon data format to be returned via the iconFormat query parameter. You can also explicitly use the builtIn option to get the system built-in icons or to get the user created icons only. If not specified, both types of icons are returned.
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.
