# Link accounts in Devolutions Cloud

The ***Linked account*** feature allows users to associate another account under the same user. This feature is particularly beneficial when a user needs to manage different accounts. For instance, a user may have an account with the email address "<bob@windjammer.co>" and another account with the email address "<_bob@windjammer.co>", which serves as an elevated or privileged account.

{% hint style="info" %}
Both users need to be created before linking them together.
{% endhint %}

The primary purpose of ***Linked account*** is to enhance user convenience and streamline account management.

### Linking the accounts

1. Log in to Devolutions Cloud with an administrator account.
2. Go to ***Administration*** – ***Users***.
3. Click on ***Edit*** for the desired user.

4. Select the other account from the ***Linked account*** dropdown.
5. Click ***Update*** to save the changes and close the window.

The accounts are now linked. The ***Linked account*** column shows which account is paired to one another.

{% hint style="info" %}
There is no primary or secondary account functionality with this feature; meaning the order in which they are linked does not matter and each can be unlinked to then be linked to a different account without issue.

To switch between both accounts, it is required to log out and log in with the second account.
