  • AD Object Type - AD Object Type — Select which type of object to manage in the Organizational Unit, a User or Computer..
  • AD Organizational Unit for the Action - AD Organizational Unit — Enter a pre-existing Organizational Unit the login account will have delegated permissions for.
  • AD Rights to be Added - AD Rights to be Added — Select which right will be delegated to the login account for managing the previously specified Organizational Unit.
  • Continue on Error - Continue on Error — If an error occurs, continue to the next step rather than halting the action.
  • Action Name - Action Name — (Optional) Edit the name of the action.
  • Paired Actions Name - Paired Action's Name — (Optional) Edit the name of the paired action

See the Action Types section for detailed descriptions of the fields.

NOTE: The fields will change depending on the selected Action Type.

Step 5 – Click Okay to create the new action.

Step 6 – Continue to create as many actions for each stage of the session (Grant, Connect, Remove) as required.

NOTE: It is not possible to change the Action Type once the action is created. Delete the existing action and then create a new action to get a new Action Type.

Step 7 – If desired, it is possible to automatically run any Protection Policies associated with the resource when the session completes. Simply add the Invoke Protection Policies action to the Post-Session group. See the Protection Policies Page topic for additional information.

NOTE: It is not necessary to select a protection policy. All protection policies that apply to the session host are executed.

The new actions are added to the activity.
