I’m trying to get started with MESH client but am unable to install on corporate desktop. Have been advised that some kind of VDI would be suitable. I have access to RDS4, so wondering if it would work in that environment - if not, how to get access to a suitable one.
Hi David,
Welcome to the MESH community - hopefully we’ll be able to get you moving.
Regarding your question about the VDI, I believe your best option would be to contact the IT Service Desk to request a VDI Developer Platform VM.
However, there are other options available for clients/users of MESH, details of which can be found at https://digital.nhs.uk/services/message-exchange-for-social-care-and-health-mesh#how-to-access-this-service. Depending on your particular needs for sending and receiving data, it may be that MESH UI (a web application accessed using a CIS2 Smartcard) could be more appropriate. If you would like to talk though the options for your scenario, please get in touch.
Best regards,
