Update credential
Update existing integration credentials with new values.
Replaces credential data (passwords, tokens, connection details) for an existing credential. Use this endpoint to rotate passwords, update connection strings, or refresh OAuth tokens.
Context: Credential updates are necessary for several operational scenarios:
- Password rotation policies require periodic credential updates
- SFTP server configuration changes (hostname, port)
- Database connection string modifications
- SSH key rotation for key-based authentication
- OAuth token refresh (though typically handled automatically)
Updates preserve credential_id, allowing workflows to continue using the same reference.
Use Cases: Rotate SFTP password after security audit requires credential changes.
Update PostgreSQL connection string after database server migration.
Replace SSH private key after key compromise detected. Related Endpoints:
- GET /integrations/credentials/ - Get credential metadata before updating
- POST /integrations/sftp/test-connection - Test new SFTP credentials before updating
- POST /integrations/postgres/test-connection - Test new PostgreSQL credentials before updating
- DELETE /integrations/credentials/ - Delete credential instead of updating
Security:
- New credentials are encrypted before storage (same as creation)
- Old credential data is overwritten (not preserved in database)
- Audit trail tracks who performed the update via modified_by field
- Test new credentials before updating to prevent workflow disruption
Notes:
- Always test new credentials before updating to avoid breaking workflows
- Workflows using this credential will use new values immediately
- OAuth credentials are typically auto-refreshed (manual update rarely needed)
- Consider creating new credential instead of updating if provider changes
