Credential Managers

GAVIN.RUDLING — Mon, 14 Feb 2022 09:28:00 GMT

Good Day

I have a requirement in which I need to create 5 different credential managers per retailer that we are onboarding to a project.
Is there anyway that the creation of these Credential managers can be automated?

Thank you
Gavin

Hi Gavin,

Look this posts in the community: Is there any process to update/create credential manager detail

Summarising, you can use this command line to create it:

automatec.exe /createcredential <name> <username> <password> [/description <string>] [/expirydate <date>] [/invalid <flag>] [/credentialtype <string>]

Hope this helps you 🙂

Bye 🙂

Hi Gavin,

In my experience , Using Bot we can automate the update part for Credential using BP Credential VBO .

Reason behind that is
A credential key must be defined within the blue prism environment
Credential with the specified name must exists
The Credential must be accessible to the running user , process and resources

So you can update the credential , make then valid or in valid or take a list of credential from Credential manager using List action of VBO once the credential is manually created in Credential manager
