Can I open several Password Depot databases in the client at the same time?
Yes, starting from version 18, you can open multiple Password Depot databases at the same time from different storage locations, including local databases, PD Enterprise Server databases, and more.
How to Open Multiple PD Enterprise Server Databases:
Click on the left panel and navigate to Home → Connect to Enterprise Server.
Connect to your Password Depot Enterprise Server.
Once connected, open a database from the main list view in the middle of the screen.
To open another database, go back to Home from the tabs area and open a new database.
What's important to know when using the browser add-on?
If administrators enable their users to auto fill their access data on websites using the browser add-on, they need to make sure to open the correct database before starting the auto complete process, that is, they need to open the database where the required access data is saved to. The same applies when users would like to add new entries to the database via the browser add-on. In order to make sure new entries are added to the correct database, it is required that users open the desired database in the client before adding this new entry. Currently, you cannot change the database if the process has already started. Therefore, new entries will always be saved to the database being displayed in the client.
Version 17 and older
Unfortunately, you cannot open several databases in the client at the same time. Therefore, it is only possible to see the content of one single database in the client's main view. Besides, search can also be only performed in the database displayed in the client.
Accessing different Enterprise Server databases
Accessing server databases with just one click is, however, possible. To do so, activate the following feature in the client by going to View → Databases on the server:
Now, in the lower left corner of the client, users can see all the server databases they enabled to access in a separate window. Users can easily switch between those databases with just one click and do not have to authenticate again and again every time they would like to open another database on the server.
Note: The feature Databases on the server cannot be used for local or cloud databases. So, if users would like to switch from a server to a cloud database and vice versa, for example, they have to open the Database Manager and correctly authenticate each time they want to open another database.
