Credential types
Store a database connection
Use Database when the record needs driver, host, port, database, username and password.
Create the record
- Open the intended folder and choose + New credential.
- Choose Database from Credential type.
- Enter a recognizable name. Choose the driver first and check the suggested port. Fill the actual host, database and username, then the password. The current browser editor does not include a CA-certificate field; coordinate TLS requirements with the consuming client.
- Review the storage location, description and tags. Do not place secrets in those metadata fields.
- Select Store credential. An intermediate Use action only accepts that field; it does not save the record.
- Open the saved record and check the name, type and available connection summary.
Validation messages stay with the form so you can correct the input. Switching types changes which fields are required. Recheck the selected type and location before submitting.
Retrieve or maintain it
Copy password returns the primary value through the audited lease flow. For a complete structured record, use the TypeScript client or CLI. This type stores structured fields, not a ready-made connection URL. A consumer must assemble the connection using its driver and TLS requirements.
Use the record’s Access tab for sharing, Activity for audit and leases, and Manage for rotation or archiving. A replacement requires the full typed record; existing secrets are not prefilled.
