Editing Credentials

The Edit Credentials dialog allows you to input passwords and other security credentials cleared from a saved workspace. The credentials that you must enter in this dialog depend on the credentials you specified must be cleared when items are saved.

Editing credentials when opening workspaces

The Edit Credentials dialog immediately displays upon opening a workspace containing data source inputs with passwords that were cleared upon saving the workspace.

 

The left-hand panel of the dialog displays all of the tables included in the workspace to be opened. Tables marked with require a password or some other security credential(s) to open.

Tick the Only show connections which may require attention box to display only those tables that require security credentials. Select a table and provide its security credentials. You can test the validity of the credentials you provided by clicking on the Test Passwords button.

If you do not wish to provide security credentials at this time, simply click the OK button on this dialog. In this case, the workspace opens, but the tables requiring security credentials are not properly loaded when you select them.
