Overview

The Credentials page (internally called “Vault”) is where admins store secrets — API keys, AWS keys, SSH keys, Iconik tokens, and similar — that other Telestream UP applications (Workflow, Scheduler, Capture, and so on) use to connect to external systems. Go to Settings → Credentials. This page is admin-only / entitlement-gated: you’ll only see the Credentials tab if your role or organization plan grants access.

Viewing credentials

The table lists each credential’s nickname, service (for example AWS, GitHub, Iconik — pick from the list or type your own), type, status (Active/Deactivated), whether it’s scoped to individual users or a group, when it was last used, and who created it. Use the search box to find a credential by name, service, or type.

Creating a credential

Click Create Credential and fill in:
  • Nickname — 3–63 characters, letters/numbers/spaces/underscores/hyphens.
  • Service — pick from the list or type your own.
  • Credential Type — locked once the credential is created. Choose from: API Key, AWS IAM User, AWS Role, Access & Secret Keys, JSON, SSH, or Iconik. Each type shows its own secret fields below (for example, an SSH credential asks for a private key and optional passphrase; an Iconik credential asks for an Application ID and API Token).
  • User TypeIndividual Users or Groups, then pick who is allowed to use this credential.
Click Create. A confirmation toast appears once it’s saved.

Editing a credential

Click a row to open it for editing. By default, existing secret values are left untouched — turn on Edit credential payload if you need to replace the stored secret itself. You can always change the nickname, service, and who’s allowed to use it without touching the secret.

Activating, deactivating, and deleting

Use a row’s menu (or select it and use the toolbar) to Deactivate an active credential or Activate a deactivated one — this takes effect immediately, no confirmation needed. Delete asks you to confirm first, since it can’t be undone.

When there’s nothing here yet

If no credentials are registered, or your search doesn’t match anything, the page shows “No credentials found.”
