Configure a 1Password entry in Remote Desktop Manager

There are two modes used to configure a 1Password entry in Remote Desktop Manager. Web connector connects to a 1Password database through the web. Linked to a local file is used to connect a 1Password entry to a local database file exported from 1Password directly.

Web connector mode

1. In Remote Desktop Manager, go to Edit – New Entry, and select the 1Password entry.
2. Name the 1Password entry.
3. Select the Web connector mode.

   

4. Set the Host as either Default or Custom.
   1. If set as Default, select a Region.
   2. If set as Custom, add the custom URL needed to access the database.
5. Configure the Username, Password, and Secret key or check Use “My Account Settings“ if they are already configured there. Refer to My Account Settings for more information.
6. Select the entry from your 1Password database you wish to reference by clicking the ellipsis next to the Title field, or check Always prompt with list to have the entry show all the available entries from the 1Password database.
7. Click Add to save the configuration.

Linked to a local file mode

1. In the 1Password desktop app, select 1Password – New vault on this PC.
2. Configure the vault and choose a folder to synchronize this vault.
3. Select the destination of the local database.
4. In Remote Desktop Manager, go to Edit – New Entry, and select the 1Password entry.
5. Name the 1Password entry.
