 In some cases, Single Connect users can be connected to target devices with different credentials. In other situations, there can be more than one privileged user account in the target system, with different user groups using different privileged accounts to log in to target systems. The Assigned Credential feature matches the Single Connect users with target device users.

In the example below, User A wants to connect to the target system with Account X and User B wants to connect to the target device with Account Y. In this case, User A is assigned to Account X and User B are assigned to Account Y.

The following steps should be followed to configure the Assigned Credential feature, and enable its use for a device group (this device group should be added to a device group realm with the user group including the users, beforehand).

1. Log in to the Single Connect Web GUI as an admin user.
2. Navigate to** Device Management **>** Device Groups**.
3. Right-click the desired** Device Group **and select** Show Properties**.
4. Save the **addAssignedCredentialToUserSelection** property as **true**.

To set upassigned credentials for different users, first save the SAPM accounts. Once these accounts are saved, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Single Connect Web GUI as an admin user.
2. Configure **SAPM** accounts for the target system.
3. Navigate to **User Management** > **Assigned Credential**.
4. Start typing the username in **User** text box, matching users will appear below. Select the one for whom another credential will be assigned.
5. Select** SAPM** as the **Credential Source**.
6. According to the selection above, either select the **SAPM Username **and click **Save**.


After completing these steps, whenever the Single Connect users defined in the steps above are attempting to open an RDP session, the assigned credentials can be used for the connection.
