Edit Credentials
Credentials are securely stored in your browser and can be edited at any time. Editing a credential lets you update tokens, passwords, or configuration fields without recreating it from scratch.
When to edit a credential
Section titled “When to edit a credential”You may need to update credentials when:
- An API key or token has expired.
- Access permissions have changed.
- You want to rename credentials for better organization.
- A connected service has updated its authentication method.
How to edit credentials
Section titled “How to edit credentials”- Open the
Agentic WorkFlowextension. - Navigate to the Credentials section.
- Locate the credential you want to update.
- Click the Edit icon (pencil).
- Update the fields you need to modify — such as API key, username, password, or scopes.
- (Optional) Rename the credential to make it easier to identify.
- Click Save to apply changes.
Tip: You can test your connection right after editing to confirm the updated credential works correctly.
Using edited credentials in workflows
Section titled “Using edited credentials in workflows”When you update a credential, all nodes and workflows using it will automatically use the updated version.
You don’t need to re-select or reconnect the credential manually.
If your edited credential fails to authenticate:
- Check the workflow’s Execution Log in the workflow executions section.
- Re-enter the updated authentication fields (especially if an external service revoked access).
Best practices
Section titled “Best practices”- Test after editing: Run a small workflow that uses the credential to confirm connectivity.
- Avoid duplicates: Instead of creating new credentials for the same account, edit the existing one to prevent confusion.
- Keep names clear: Include service and purpose in the name (e.g., “Slack Bot – Marketing”).
- Audit regularly: Remove or update credentials that are no longer in use to maintain security.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”If you see an authentication or connection error after editing:
- Verify the entered credentials are correct.
- Check the connected service (for example, your API dashboard) for revoked tokens or rate limits.
- If editing doesn’t fix the issue, try creating a new credential and reassign it to your workflow nodes.
