Users gets prompted when initially receiving the configuration of the AppPortal

vWorkspace 8.5 AppPortal initial configuration require user authentication which was not the case in prior versions of vWorkspace 8.0, 7.x..etc

vWorkspace 8.5 has introduced a new mechanism to deliver connector configuration which requires the user to be authenticated with the connection broker.

This behavior can be disabled by launching vWorkspace console | right click on the farm | Farm properties | Connector Configuration  and unchecking "Require authentication before retrieving connector configurations directly from the connection broker" 

This option allows legacy vWorkspace connectors 8.0, 7.x... to download configurations directly from the connection broker and in order to achieve this result uncheck the checkbox. Alternatively, for legacy support export of connector configurations to a file then place on a web server or a file share.
