Create a data source

Upon first launch, Remote Desktop Manager uses a local SQLite data source. The different data sources are listed in Data source types. For help selecting a data source tailored to your needs, please see our Getting started section.

Once you have identified your needs, you can proceed with the creation of your first data source:

1. In Remote Desktop Manager, go to File – Data sources.
2. Click on Add a new data source.

   

3. Select the type of data source to create, then click Add. In the example below, a Devolutions Server data source is being created.

   

4. Configure the data source connection settings. To validate the information, click on Test connection or Test host depending on the type of data source being created.

   

5. Click Add when the configuration is complete.
6. Once created, the new data source should automatically open. You can also manually open the data source by selecting it from the data source drop-down list at the top of the Navigation pane.

You may have to add a license to your data source. If you are using an advanced data source, there is no need to add a license in Remote Desktop Manager as the license serial is retrieved directly from the data source.
