# PAM Dashboard

Use the PAM Dashboard in Remote Desktop Manager to connect to privileged accounts, copy passwords, and manage checkout and check-in requests by folder.

{% hint style="success" %}
A license is now required to enable the Privileged Access Management (PAM) module. Please contact our [sales department](mailto:sales@devolutions.net) for more information about the license.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The ***PAM Dashboard*** is only available with a [Devolutions Server](https://devolutions.net/server) workspace.
{% endhint %}

The ***PAM Dashboard*** feature can be found in ***View*** – ***Panels*** – ***PAM dashboard***.

In the ***PAM Dashboard***, for every privileged account, it is possible to connect to the account, copy the password, and manage the checkout/check-in process.

To access the user accounts, a PAM folder must first be selected. If you have multiple folders, it might be helpful to use the filter bar to find the one you are looking for. Note that these are the same folders as in your Devolutions Server Console. You can go to [Privileged Account Management in Devolutions Server](/pam/pam-with-devolutions-server.md) to learn more about it.

When the folder is selected, all the accounts in that folder will appear. It is possible to sort them by ***Name***, ***Folder Path***, ***Username***, ***Account Type***, or ***Checkout Status***.

If there are multiple accounts in the folder, you can use the filter bar to display only the accounts containing what you typed. You can push your search even further by filtering the accounts by credential type.

### Check Out request with custom time

It is possible to make a ***Check Out*** request for a certain time slot while in a PAM vault. This feature is very useful for planned maintenance outside of normal work hours, when approvers are not available.

{% hint style="info" %}
Making a ***Check Out*** request in advance is only available in PAM vaults.
{% endhint %}

1. Connect to a Devolutions Server workspace.
2. In the Remote Desktop Manager ribbon, click on ***View*** and then ***PAM Dashboard***.
3. Select a PAM vault from the dropdown.
4. Right-click on an entry and click on ***Check Out***.
5. Select whom you want to send the request to. Choosing ***All Approvers*** speeds up the process by allowing the first available approver to confirm the request.
6. Enable ***Set custom time frame***.
7. Set the ***Start time*** and ***End time***. It is recommended to add a ***Comment*** to let the approver know why the ***Check Out*** is needed.
8. Click on ***Request Check-out*** to send the request and close the window.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/pam/pam-with-remote-desktop-manager/pam-dashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
