Creating multiple WorkSpaces for a single user

0

I'm trying to set up multiple workspaces for a single user, following this guide: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/adminguide/create-multiple-workspaces-for-user.html. However I can't work out how I'm meant to add extra usernames to a user as described in the guide. Anybody got any ideas for me?

A user can be assigned to exactly 1 WorkSpace per directory. In order to create a second WorkSpace for a user in the same directory, you must create a new directory account for that user. For example. testuser, testuser1, testuser2 etc.

If you do not wish to create multiple directory accounts for a user, you have the option to provision an additional AD Connector for WorkSpaces. You can provision a WorkSpace for the same directory with a secondary AD Connector. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/latest/adminguide/launch-workspace-ad-connector.html for details.
