Credential types
Store a generic secret
Use Generic secret when the record needs single-line value and optional format hint.
Create the record
- Open the intended folder and choose + New credential.
- Choose Generic secret from Credential type.
- Enter a recognizable name. Enter the value and choose a format hint if it helps the consumer. The hint describes the value; it does not validate or transform it. Use Secure note for multiline text.
- 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 secret returns the primary value through the audited lease flow. For a complete structured record, use the TypeScript client or CLI. Do not put the value in the description, name or tags. Those fields are visible metadata.
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.
