Make Connection work in both directions

I have two accounts (A and B) which are competitors in the same market. I want to connect the accounts with each other using a Connection and the Connection Role 'Competitor'.

When I connect A to B using connection role Competitor I see the Role (To) in A, but in B it's empty. How to make a connection bidirectional, such that selecting a role allows you to populate it on both sides. Unfortunately, I cannot use Matchgin Connection Roles with the same Role (e.g. I cannot add Competitor to Competitor as match connection role)

I understand that connections are not always bidiretional (as in Parent and Child), but Competitor definitely is a bidirectional connection.

This works, thank you! I tried to add the Matching Connection Role using the Unified Client Interface, and I could not select the same role as in Competitor.

Thank you.

Go Settings > Business Management > Connection Roles.

Find ‘Competitor’ and open it.

You can to add the Matching Connection Role competitor itsel) in the sub grid at the bottom, similar to this:
