Password Management

Users with privileges to view the Password Management page can add, delete, or edit the password entry in the secure storage. The “Add Password” button lets users add the password, and when the entry is selected, the user then can change the password for that entry or click the x to delete that entry.

The Password Management page manages the contents of Equinox secure storage, which defines an encrypted file indexed by a URL and user id and storing a password encrypted by the secure storage password and the key. This means in particular that if the user id or URL changes for a given entry, the password must be re-entered using this page or any other sources for secure storage entries.

There are two sources for secure storage passwords:

Checking the “Send necessary connection credentials” in TopBraid Composer’s Export > Deploy project to TopBraid Live Server. This sends the contents of the Composer user’s local secure storage to the server’s secure storage. This is necessary when one is deploying a project from the IDE (Composer) that may contain passwords for connector files, SPARQLMotion scripts, etc.

Note

To transfer the data form Composer’s secure storage to the server’s secure storage requires unencrypting Composer’s secure storage and sending the content in plain text. For full security, use https when performing a deploy that includes “Send necessary connection credentials”,
