Massive gauge string sigma model action

Question

I want to know how to insert massive gauges in string sigma model action. For massless fields it is possible by integrating the U(1) field over the string worldsheet, but in the case of massive gauge if I use the same procedure to make massive gauge action I won't see the effect of mass in d-brane interaction, when massive gauges are living on the brane. I think that the procedure should be modified for massive gauges, the question is - how? I meane $\alpha_{-n}^\mu |0,k\rangle$ Which it's mass squared is $m^2={n-1 \over \alpha'}$

What is a "massive gauge" for you (there are several things that could be called that)?
