        Tobias, did you run the Set-XDCredentials cmdlet first to create a profile before running the documentation script?

            Did you install the Remote PowerShell SDK from Step 3 in the Prerequisites?

              Hello,

              on the Client is the powershell sdk, the group policy Management extension and the pvs console installed.

              Tobias had to reinstall the Remote PowerShell SDK to get past the issue of modules not loading. Shane O’Neill is now working with Tobias on the issue “Unable to connect to your Citrix Cloud account”.

              Update: There is apparently a conflict between the PVS PowerShell and Citrix Cloud PowerShell. The last installed wins and the other ceases to work.
