Create a new password
  1. From the Repository menu, select Password store.
  2. Select the Passwords tab.
  3. Click the plus sign to create a new password.

    The "Password entry" dialog box appears.

  4. Complete the following fields:

    • Projects: Select a project to contain the password entry.

    • User name: Type a user name to access the target system.

    • Target system: Type a description of the system to access. This is required to distinguish this target system from others.

Modify a password

Perform the following actions on password entries from the context menu.

  • Edit: Edit the same fields as on the "Password entry" dialog box.

  • Move password entry: From the drop-down list, select a project to move password entries from one to another. The password store access is project-based. You can see password entries assigned to projects that you have access to. A Management Console administrator can move password entries between projects for project administrators to manage password entries and grant access to target systems.

  • Move password entry: Select the Merge entries option to combine entries with identical user names and target systems.

To remove a password entry, select it in the table and click the bin icon. A prompt asks you to confirm the deletion.
