When packages are published to a computer that is running the App-V client, metadata is sent to that computer indicating which packages and connection groups are being published. The App-V Client makes two separate requests for the following:
|
||||
|
||||
- Packages and connection groups that are entitled to the client computer.
|
||||
|
||||
In App-V, you must provide the following values in the address when you query the App-V Publishing server for metadata:
|
||||
- Packages and connection groups that are entitled to the current user.

<p>If you omit the <strong>ClientOS</strong> parameter from the query, only the packages that were sequenced to support any operating system appear in the metadata.</p></td>

The Publishing server communicates with the Management server to determine which packages and connection groups are available to the requester. The Publishing server must be registered with the Management server in order for the metadata to be generated.
|

|

|

You can view the metadata for each request in an Internet browser by using a query that is in the context of the specific user or computer.

## <a href="" id="bkmk-syntax-view-pub-meta"></a>Query syntax for viewing publishing metadata
|
||||
|
||||
This section provides information about queries for viewing publishing metadata for App-V 5.0 SP3 Server and App-V 5.1 server. The App-V server components have not changed since App-V 5.0 was released, so App-V 5.x Server is the version of the server used with App-V for Windows 10.
|
||||
|
||||
The following table provides the syntax and query examples.

For information about the variables in this syntax, see the table that follows.

**Query example**
|

|
||||
`http://pubsvr01:2718/?ClientVersion=10.0.14393&ClientOS=WindowsClient_10.0_x64`
|
||||
|
||||
In your publishing metadata query, enter the string values that correspond to the client operating system and version that you’re using.
|
||||
In this example:
|
||||
|
||||
- A computer running Windows Server 2016 named “pubsvr01” hosts the Publishing service.
|
||||
|
||||
- The Windows client is Windows 10, 64-bit.
|
||||
|
||||
**Query parameter descriptions**
|
||||
|
||||
The following table describes the parameters shown in the preceding **Query syntax**.
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description |
|
||||
|------------|---------------|
|
||||
| `<PubServer>` | Name of the App-V Publishing server. |
|
||||
| `<Publishing Port#>` | Port to the App-V Publishing server, which you defined when you configured the Publishing server. |
|
||||
| `ClientVersion=<BuildNumber>` | Windows 10 build number. You can obtain this number by running the following Windows PowerShell command:<br>`(Get-CimInstance Win32_OperatingSystem).version` |
|
||||
| `ClientOS=<OSStringValue>` | Operating system of the computer that is running the App-V client. Refer to the table that follows for the correct value.<br>You can omit this parameter, with the result that only the packages that were sequenced to support all operating systems will appear in the metadata. |
|
||||
|
||||
To get the name of the Publishing server and the port number (`http://<PubServer>:<Publishing Port#>`) from the App-V client, look at the URL configuration of the <strong>Get-AppvPublishingServer</strong> Windows PowerShell cmdlet.
