Secret Names Settings (Magic xpa 3.x)
Secret names are intended for use where there is a need to hide sensitive information from unauthorized users. For example, secret names could be used for project file access keys, User password fields, Servers/DB properties and Data file access keys.
The Secret Name repository is identical to the Logical Name repository, except:
-
The Secret Name repository can only be accessed and viewed by the supervisor. Secret names can be used even without authenticating as a supervisor.
-
A secret name can be used only in authorized fields, which are as follows:
o User Name and Password server properties
o User Name and Password database properties
o User Name and Password LDAP properties
o Access Key data source property
o SOAP Client Modules Path environment setting
o HTTPCall, HTTPGet and HTTPPost functions
-
In places where secret names are allowed, if the name entered in one of these places is not a secret name, Magic xpa will then search for the name in the Logical Name repository.
-
Secret names are stored in the security file that is specified as an environment setting. This security file is encrypted.
