Cirrus[Workaound] User required to manually start EPI and VPN in browsers
After upgrading to version 16.1.4 the users need to manually start the End Point Inspector and the Web Initiated VPN by clicking on a "Start" button. This is describe in this KB.
I created a user-common.js that will automatically click on the start button for the user. However, please note that this workround works as of 3rd of November 2023, but might stop working in the future in different browsers.
In order to activate the workaround you need to have an Access Policy of the Moden type. Then go to Customizations -> Advanced -> Acces Profiles -> <Your Access Profile> -> Common
Add the followinf to the file user-common.js
define(["require", "exports", "apmui"], function (require, exports, apmui_1) {
"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
var app = apmui_1.App.get();
app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.EPS_CHECK_PROGRESS, function (_, store) {
var btns = document.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button");
if (btns.length == 0) {
console.log("Failed to find button...");
return;
}
btns[0].click();
});
app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.DIALOG_OPEN, function (_, store) {
setTimeout(function () {
var dialog = document.getElementById("sna_auto_start_not_supported");
if (dialog == null) {
console.log("Didn't find the right dialog");
return;
}
var btns = dialog.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button");
if (btns.length == 0) {
console.log("Didn't find the start button");
return;
}
btns[0].click();
}, 100);
});
});If you have a better solution to this, please let me know. This was just what I came up with when asked by customers that the new "Start" button had created confusion among their users.
2024-01-30: Updated to also include auto start of tunnels.
define(["require", "exports", "apmui"], function (require, exports, apmui_1) {
"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
var app = apmui_1.App.get();app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.EPS_CHECK_PROGRESS, function (_, store) {
var btns = document.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button");if (btns.length == 0) {
console.log("Failed to find button...");
return;
}btns[0].click();
});app.subscribe(apmui_1.EventType.DIALOG_OPEN, function (_, store) {
setTimeout(function () {
var dialog = document.getElementById("sna_auto_start_not_supported");if (dialog == null) {
try {
dialog = document.getElementsByClassName("restart_noautostart_action")[0];
} catch (e) { }
}
if (dialog == null) {
console.log("Didn't find the right dialog");
return;
}var btns = dialog.getElementsByClassName("apmui-button");
if (btns.length == 0) {
console.log("Didn't find the start button");
return;
}btns[0].click();
}, 100);
});
});
