You can upgrade your existing VMware Workspace ONE® Access™ connector installation to version 21.08 to get the latest features such as the new Virtual App service, security updates, and resolved issues. Workspace ONE Access connector is a component of Workspace ONE Access, formerly known as VMware Identity Manager.

You can upgrade to Workspace ONE Access connector 21.08 from the following versions:

  • 20.10.x
  • 20.01.x

Upgrading from Versions Prior to 20.01.x

  • If your current connector version is 19.03.x, you can migrate to version 21.08 using the migration process described in Migrating to VMware Workspace ONE Access Connector 21.08.
    Note: If your current installation includes integration with Horizon Cloud Service on Microsoft Azure with Single-Pod Broker or Horizon Cloud Service on IBM Cloud, do not migrate to version 21.08. The 21.08 version does not support these integrations.
