One-Time-URL

Thinfinity® Workspace offers a mechanism to generate One-Time-URL connections that expire after a given period of time.

These are some situations in which the One-Time-URL might be useful:

a. Giving access to a desktop to external users without having to weaken the Security level to 'Allow Anonymous Access'.

b. Generating a temporary access to a desktop.

c. Integrating Thinfinity® Workspace on a Single-Sign-On Scheme along with external applications.

How it works:

1. First you need to ask Thinfinity® Workspace to generate the URL for you. Call Thinfinity® Workspace server following this URL format:

http(s)://Thinfinity:Port/ws/oturl/get?<queryString>

2. The queryString should be built with all parameters listed below:

apikey= <apikey> &apiuser= <apiuser> &model= <model> &plen= <passlen> &expires= <expires>

Find on the table below a description for each required parameter.

On the next topics you can find out other parameters you can use to Configure the connection and Enable features.

3. If Thinfinity® Workspace gets to authenticate with the parameters sent on the queryString, it will return a One-Time-URL that will allow you to establish an RDP connection with the remote desktop.

/oturl.html?key=w7NJNschBdJD9e6G6luWhOCalM$oFW7guqC6jE1IQah3AJm3&pass=BOWZB8FG

Concatenate the Thinfinity® Workspace address to the generated URL, following this format below:

http(s)://Thinfinity:Port/oturl.html?key=w7NJNschBdJD9e6G6luWhOCalM$oFW7guqC6jE1IQah3AJm3&pass=BOWZB8FG

This way, the URL will be ready to be used. You can redirect your application to the desktop connection through it, or even send it to an external user by e-mail.
