Organize and share your servers
Folders
Every saved server sits in a folder in the Sessions list — General unless you choose another. Folders are yours: other people never see your folder names.
- Move a server to another folder — click ⋯ next to it (or right-click it) → Move to folder…, then pick a folder or New folder…. You can also drag the server onto another folder. Only the folder changes: its settings, password, key and any open tabs stay as they are.
- Rename a folder — click ⋯ on the folder (or right-click its name) → Rename folder…. The servers inside stay in it. If you already have a folder with the new name, FusionTerm asks whether to merge the two.
- Reorder folders — drag a folder by its name. ▾ minimizes it.
Admins can rename a shared folder the same way; everyone with access sees the new name.
Duplicate a server
⋯ → Duplicate makes a separate copy, named "… (copy)", in the same folder — handy for a similar server. Changing the copy never changes the original.
Share a server with a person
⋯ → Share with people…, type their FusionTerm username and click Give access.
- They can connect (terminal, files, tunnels). They never see the password or key, and can't change, delete, move or reshare it.
- It stays in your folder — sharing doesn't move it or make it a company connection. They see it under Shared with me.
- If it uses a jump host or a vault entry, they connect through those too, without seeing their credentials.
- The ⋯ menu shows how many people have access.
Access can end by itself: choose For 1 day / 1 week / 30 days / 90 days next to Give access, or click a person's end date (or "no end date") to change it later. When the time comes, FusionTerm removes their access, closes any tab they have open on it, and records it in the audit log — useful for contractors and temporary help.
Remove access in the same window takes it away at once: if they have it open, their tab is disconnected with "your access to this connection was removed". Your saved server is not changed. Giving and removing access is recorded in the audit log.
If your account is disabled, the servers you shared stop working for others too.
Sharing vs. shared folders
| Share with people | Shared connections (admins) | |
|---|---|---|
| Who owns it | You — it stays in your sessions | The company folder |
| Who manages it | You | Admins and Edit members |
| Access | Connect only | Use or Edit |
Moving a server of yours into a shared folder (in its edit form, Location → Move to shared folder) is different: it leaves your sessions for good, so FusionTerm asks you to confirm.
