Macros/Scripts/Tools - launch with 'My Privileged Account' or other PAM vault entry

In my organization our admins log into RDM/DVLS with standard user accounts without privilege.

We then leverage 'My Privileged Account' to launch RDP, SSH, Powershell and other customized sessions as each users named Privileged Account that is stored in our PAM Vault.

Unfortunately, since we're logged into RDM with standard accounts, none of the nice tools available in the Macros/Scripts/Tools avaiable to RDP sessions work. It would be great if these could leverage the credential specified in the session configuration, similar to the option to 'Open with Parameters' that is available.

Hello,

I'm assuming you're talking about this tab in the dashboard and the tools it contains:

Since you mention using the My Privileged Account configuration to log into your RDP, did you make sure to set the "Tools" section to use the same credential? You can either make it use the same credentials as the "main" section of the entry, or directly point to the My Privileged Account:

If you don't configure this then it will be on "use default credentials" which means RDM doesn't send any credential information to the tools.

Let me know if that helps, otherwise it might be good to know which tools exactly aren't working, as they aren't all implemented the same way.

Regards,
