Posted on by VishalSalvankar 4

Hi, I had a query regarding the Credential Management in Power Automate.

 

Can anyone explain me how the credentials to connectors are stored and managed by Power Automate

Also which encryption scheme is used to store credentials safely.

 

Thanks in advance

    That link seems to go to a completely unrelated topic.

    Is there no credential management capability in Power Automate?

    Hi,
    in Cloud flow you can use Azure Key Vault (premium, like almost everything that is essential in work) for desktop there is no way to do it. Azure Key Vault for PA desktop is planned in August release.

    Step 1: Add an Azure Key Vault connection in the Asset Library

    Step 2:  Use the "Get Secret" action in PAD to retrieve credential values securely.
