URL content redirection helper for Omnissa Horizon virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI)

Enables seamless URL redirection between a remote virtual desktop/application (Horizon Agent) and the local client machine (Horizon Client), so that URLs opened in a remote session can be handled by local applications and vice versa, improving the user experience in VDI environments

1) Extension is installed alongside Omnissa Horizon Client. 2) On browser startup, the extension connects to the Horizon native messaging host and loads URL redirection configuration (protocol rules, broker hostname, remote item, client/agent rules). 3) When the user navigates to a URL in Chrome, the extension's webNavigation listener intercepts it, checks the URL against configured protocol rules and regex patterns, and determines if redirection should occur. 4) If redirection is needed, the URL is rewritten to a Horizon protocol URL (vmware-view:// or vmware-view-url-launch://) that triggers the Horizon Client to handle it, or to the Chrome client launch URL.

Target users: Enterprise end-users working in Omnissa Horizon virtual desktop environments / IT administrators deploying Horizon URL redirection policies

The extension is minified/single-line JS making exact line references less useful
No user-facing UI exists — it's a background-only helper, so some behaviors depend on the native Horizon Client environment which is not available for inspection

Monetization

No paid features detected

The extension has no payment UI, no billing API calls, no feature gating, no subscription checks, and no upgrade prompts. It is a free helper extension for the Omnissa Horizon Client. The keyword hits for 'pro' are false positives from German locale strings ('Produkt'), copyright notices ('protected'), and base64 encoded content. The Omnissa Horizon platform itself is a commercial enterprise product requiring licensing, but the extension itself does not gate any paid features.

Confidence: 90
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: The extension itself has no login UI, no OAuth flows, no credential collection, and no session management code. It is a passive URL-interception helper that reads configuration from native host messaging or local storage. While the broader Omnissa Horizon ecosystem (Horizon Client/Agent) requires enterprise authentication, the extension itself does not gate any functionality behind a login.
