Credentials

I'm using RDM 9.0.12. I'm impressed! Really good job done!
That said, this is what I'm trying to do. First of all... my scenario. I get connected to several SERVERs and CLIENTs using RD. I've saved some Credentials in my Repository. I've set one test CLIENT (lets call it CLIENT1) to ask which Credential should I use picking it from the Repository. The Repository has (for example) Admin1, Admin2, User1 and User2.
The question is: how can I set RDM to allow me to choose only a limited number of Credentials when I try to connect to CLIENT1? I wish RDM to allow me to choose only between Admin1 and User1. What I can choose now is any Credential (Admin1, Admin2, User1 and User2) and that's too much.
Thank you

Hi

At this time it's not possible, althought I'd like that myself ;)

It's on the feature request list, we'll consider this as your +1

Hi,
If I understand correctly what you want, it's possible but you need to create some subfolders to regroup your credentials

1. Select Credential repository and -- Prompt for connection --
2. Click on All and pick the group you want

Thank you for your fast reply. The solution supplied by David works even though I believe that can be done better (or easier). I agree with your action of adding it to the "feature request list".
@David
Your suggestion works. Thank you. But, I believe it can be done better, easier, "cleaner". In my example I have CLIENT1 which is accessed by Admin1 and User1. That requires a folder named CLIENT1 where I put 2 credentials. If I take CLIENT2, it is accessed by Admin1 and User2. That requires another folder (CLIENT2) where I must put a replicated Admin1 and User2. The tree structure becomes very populated and that might create confusion with tens/hundreds of SERVERs and CLIENTs. I think it might be better if there was a list of credentials stored with the CLIENTx settings where I can select and unselect those credentials that can be used on that specific CLIENT. This is why I agree with Maurice's action of adding it to the "feature request list".
