Field | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
Display as | Enter the display name for the connection. If you will be creating multiple connections, ensure the name readily identifies the connection. The name displays in the application, and you can use it to search for the connection and filter lists. If you do not add a display name, the connection will automatically be named using the account owner's name. For example, Egnyte (John Doe). If it will be useful for you to reference the connection by account, you should use the default name. | Optional |
User Type | Required | |
Connect as standard user | Select this option to create a standard connection to access a user's files and folders. This is the default selection. | |
Connect as account administrator | Select this option to create an administrator connection. This requires administrator privileges and grants access to all accounts within the organization. This option is often used along with impersonation to simplify transferring multiple user accounts. When connected as an administrator, the first level of folders will be user names. | |
Domain | Enter the URL for your Egnyte account. It will look something like https://companyname.egnyte.com. | Required |
