Once installation begins, your screen will be similar to what is pictured in **_image 2 below_**.

#

## Step 2 - Logging into the FASTdesk Portal
Once the "Citrix Workspace" application is installed, proceed to open it (Refer to **_image 3_ below**).

![Image 3: Citrix Workspace application is installed](files/appstore.png "Image 3: Citrix Workspace application is installed")

#

After launching Citrix Workspace for the first time, you will receive four notifications from your phone asking to "Allow Workspace to access photos, media and other files on your device?" Please select Allow for the set-up to continue(Refer to **_image 4 below_**).

![Image 4: Citrix Workspace asking for read permissions.](files/permisions1.png "Image 4: Citrix Workspace asking for read permissions.")

#

Once finished, you will be prompted to enter a company email address or store URL. Simply type the following URL “https://www.fastdesk.co.uk” and click Continue. Do make sure you enter the full URL including the "https://www." Please leave the "Add account type as Web Interface" unselected (Refer to **_image 5 below_** included).

![Image 5: Entering FASTdesk Store URL](files/Enterservercreds.png "Image 5: Entering FASTdesk Store URL")

#

If you get a prompt to save the URL, the option is yours as to whether you want the URL saved or not but we would recommend it as it makes it easier to log on on a day-to-day basis (See **_Image 6 below_**).

![Image 6: Save FASTdesk URL](files/firstlogin.png "Image 6: Save FASTdesk URL")

#

You will then be prompted to enter your username and password into the application. Go ahead and enter the username and password credentials that were provided to you by the FASTdesk team (See **_Image 7 below_**).

![Image 7: Enter your credentials](files/entercreds.png "Image 7: Enter your credentials")

#

Once successfully logged in for the first time, you will be asked to change your password. Your password must be a minimum of 8 characters in length and contain at least 3 of the following: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, symbols and special characters e.g “! ” £”. Your password can also not contain the name of your account. For example, if your account name is John Smith, a password with the word ‘john’ will not be accepted.

## Step 3 - Launching a desktop from the Portal
When you first log in, you will notice there is nothing to click except the menu button in the left top corner of the screen and the search button in the top right corner of the screen(refer to **_image 8_** below).

![Image 8: When you first log-in](files/mainscreen.png "Image 8: When you first log-in")

#

Select the menu button and there is a list of options (Home, Apps, and Desktops). Refer to **_image 9_ below** for a visual representation. The "Home" section in the menu contains hosted desktops you have tagged as your favourites whilst the "Apps" section presents you with specific applications that have been made available to you. In most cases, you will not use this section. The "Refresh" options will reset your connection to the application whilst the "Settings" section presents you with the settings you can customise including the ability for you to manage your accounts.

Go ahead and select the desktop by clicking on it and this will begin to launch your desktop (see **_image 11_** below).

![Image 11: Desktop loading](files/Logginin2.png "Image 11: Desktop loading")

#

![Image 12: Instructions on interacting with the desktop](files/desktop_set_up.png "Image 12: Instructions on interacting with the desktop")

Whenever you log out of a desktop, do allow at least 3 minutes before attempting to log back in. This is to ensure the session correctly ends before another one is open. If you have not waited long enough, there is a danger of your applications not appearing when you log in. If you do find that this is the case, simply log out, wait at least 3 minutes and log back in again.
