Add Linked Account

A linked account lets you sign in to a site or device with a user name and password that are already stored in PassMan. You create it with the checkbox in the upper-right corner of the window.

Typical examples are signing in with Facebook, a Google account, an Apple ID or Microsoft AD.

Prerequisites

1. The account (user1) that you want to use on another target is stored on one target (target1).
2. You make user1 available on another target (target2) by linking the user1 account to target2.

Link an account to another target

1. Open the accounts of the target where you want to use user1: open the target's menu, and select Accounts.

2. Select + to create an account.

3. In Create account in PassMan, select the checkbox in the upper-right corner. Its tooltip is Creation of a linked account.

   

4. Under Create LINKED ACCOUNT, in Choose a directory, select the folder where the user1 account is. You can type part of the folder's name to shorten the list.

   

5. Select the user1 account, and then select Add to save it.

   

6. The new account appears in the target's account list. The letter L shows that it is a linked account.

Use a linked account

Select the 1-click icon () to sign in to the target with user1 and its password, which are stored for another target (for example, an Apple ID).

Unlink

Right-click the linked account, or select the icon, to open its menu. Then select Unlink.
