Connection User Type

Connect as a Standard User

This option is used to create a connection that will access a specific user’s files and folders. This is the default user type option when creating a new connection.

Connect as an Account Administrator

This option is used 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.
