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.


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.

  1. Open the Agentic WorkFlow extension.
  2. Navigate to the Credentials section.
  3. Locate the credential you want to update.
  4. Click the Edit icon (pencil).
  5. Update the fields you need to modify — such as API key, username, password, or scopes.
  6. (Optional) Rename the credential to make it easier to identify.
  7. Click Save to apply changes.

Tip: You can test your connection right after editing to confirm the updated credential works correctly.


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).

  • 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.

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.
