# CyberArk remote app

Remote App lets you open an application inside an RDP session through CyberArk in Remote Desktop Manager. You can launch it in two ways: from the CyberArk dashboard entry or by using a PVWA credential entry.

{% hint style="info" %}
CyberArk integrations require the [Privileged access management solutions package](https://docs.devolutions.net/resources/getting-started-packages/privileged-access-management-package/) license.
{% endhint %}

### From a CyberArk dashboard entry

1. Open Remote Desktop Manager and add a new entry.
2. Select ***CyberArk dashboard***.
3. Enter the required information, then open the ***Advanced*** tab.
4. In the ***General*** tab, enable ***Open sessions externally***.
