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 name for the connection. For example, Citrix ShareFile Shared Folders (John Doe). If it will be useful for you to reference the connection by the account name, you should use the default name.
