XenDesktop 7.5 – quick reporting and documentation in Excel

Boring reporting, #$%^&* reporting. No one likes it, but communication with managers is the part of our lives whether we like it or not … There are many ways how we dill with it. Today I would like to demonstrate how to get easy DesktopDirector's data and put them into Microsoft Excel.

Before we will do it, we need to download and install PowerPivot for Microsoft Excel 2010. It is an easy Next, Next installation. Once you are ready you can launch your Excel.

Go to PowerPivot tab, new Excel window will popup.

On the ribbon find From Data Feeds button, click it.

For Friendly Connection Name provide your site or broker name

For data feed url: http://{yourDeliveryControllerFQDN}/Citrix/Monitor/OData/v1/Data.

I would like to wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. All the best for you and your families.

… BTW … for XenApp 7.x it works as well …
