Credential Vault Authentication

​

Structure

Credentials follow a two-level hierarchy:

• Vault: A container for grouping and managing credentials.
• Credential: A specific secret stored within a vault, consisting of a variable name and its corresponding value.

​

Creating a Vault

1. On the Credentials page, click Create Vault.
2. Enter a vault name and click Create.

​

Adding Credentials

After creating a vault, add individual credentials on the vault’s detail page:

1. Click the vault name to navigate to its detail page.
2. In the Credential List section, click New Credential.
3. Fill in the following fields:
   • Credential Name: A display name for the credential.
   • Variable Name: The key used by tools to reference this credential (e.g., MY_API_KEY).
   • Variable Value: The actual secret value. After saving, the plaintext value is no longer displayed in the UI; it is decrypted and injected server-side only when referenced by tools.
4. Click Create to complete.

​

Binding to a Session

When creating a session, select an existing vault from the Credential Vault dropdown field. During session execution, MCP services and skills can reference credential values using their variable names.

​

Next Steps

• Initiate a Session: Bind a vault when creating a session.
• Define an Agent: Attach MCP services or skills requiring authentication to your agent.
