We need to use api key to authenticate into a third party service. The question is how does splunk add-on builder store password? I created a password field and saw that the password.conf in local folder is being updated. Does this mean that password fields are encrypted and stored in password.conf?&nbsp;<BR />Any help will be really appreciated.</P> Fri, 21 Apr 2023 12:59:46 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-are-passwords-stored-by-Splunk-Add-on-builder/m-p/640943#M11028 anweshkumar12 2023-04-21T12:59:46Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-are-passwords-stored-by-Splunk-Add-on-builder/m-p/640991#M11029 <P>Yes, the PWs are stored in local passwords.conf file in the app using the "splunk.secret" encryption seed.&nbsp; You can manually decrypt them like this:<BR /><BR /><SPAN>$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk show-decrypted --value 'YourPasswordHere'</SPAN></P> Fri, 21 Apr 2023 14:36:38 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-are-passwords-stored-by-Splunk-Add-on-builder/m-p/640991#M11029 woodcock 2023-04-21T14:36:38Z
