------------------------------------------
Summary: Add documentation section describing limitations when
running Guacamole over HTTP
Key: GUACAMOLE-2227
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2227
Project: Guacamole
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 1.6.0, 1.6.1
Reporter: Bradley Bennett
It may be worthwhile to add documentation describing potential limitations when
Guacamole is deployed over HTTP rather than HTTPS.
Modern browsers enforce secure context requirements for certain APIs. When
Guacamole is served over HTTP, some browsers disable or restrict features such
as clipboard access. This can break cut-and-paste functionality and may appear
to users as a Guacamole issue rather than a browser security restriction.
As far as I can tell, documentation does not clearly mention that running
Guacamole over HTTP can result in browser-imposed feature limitations.
