# Shortcut entries

Create shortcut entries in Remote Desktop Manager to link one entry to multiple groups without duplicating its properties.

In Remote Desktop Manager, there are many scenarios where it makes sense for an entry to appear more than once in the ***navigation pane***. For example, you might want to:

* Assign different access to the folder;
* Create a favorite folder with everything centralized;
* Reuse a document for different scenarios.

Creating shortcuts is simplified by saving the entry once in the database while linking it to more than one group. So when the application loads the data, it automatically creates a link to the original entry.

### Option 1 - Via the navigation pane or the ribbon

One way to create a shortcut is by doing a right-click on the chosen entry and then using the menu ***Edit – Create Shortcut***.

Another way to create a shortcut is using the ***Edit menu – Create Shortcut***.

{% hint style="info" %}
There is no visual differences between the shortcut and the original entry. Therefore, you’ll need to delete all entries to completely remove them.
{% endhint %}

### Option 2 - Via session properties

A second way to create a shortcut is via the session properties. Since the shortcut is based on a group list, simply add a session in multiple groups by setting two or more destinations, and separating them by a semi-colon “;”. You can also use the browse button (…) and select more than one group by holding the <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> key while clicking on the tree node.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically 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/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/edit/shortcut-entries.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 `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` 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.
