Description
This article provides an overview of the Vault functions available in RPA. The Vault provides secure, encrypted storage for credentials such as passwords, API keys, tokens, and connection strings. Credentials are encrypted locally and never synced to the server.
Key concepts
- Credential – a named set of secret fields (username, password, API key, token, connection string)
- Encryption – all credentials are encrypted at rest using a local encryption key
- Key rotation – the encryption key can be rotated periodically for security
Available Vault Functions
- Retrieve credential: Retrieves a stored credential from the vault.
- Store credential: Stores a credential in the vault.
- Delete credential: Deletes a credential from the vault.
- Check credential exists: Checks if a credential exists in the vault.
- List credentials: Lists all credential names in the vault.
- Rotate encryption key: Rotates the vault encryption key.
