The ''click to connect'' button is a feature that allows users to connect to target systems without entering their credentials manually. It is also known as EPV transparent connections or PSM transparent connections. To activate this feature, you need to enable theAllow EPV transparent connectionsparameter in the Master Policy. This parameter determines whether users can use the ''click to connect'' button to initiate a privileged session from the PVWA. If the parameter is set to Active, the button is enabled and users can connect to target systems with one click. If the parameter is set to Inactive, the button is disabled and users need to copy the credentials and paste them in the target system login screen.Reference:Connect and configure - CyberArk,How to enable/disable Connect button in PVWA console - force.com

Vault admins do not need to manually add the auditors' group to newly created safes, because the auditors' group is automatically added to every safe in the vault by default. The auditors' group has the View Audit authorization, which allows its members to view the safe's activity and run reports. However, vault admins can remove the auditors' group from specific safes if they want to restrict the access of the auditors.Reference:Predefined users and groups - CyberArk
