How to Store User User Password with setup page

Hi community,

I have the need to store encrypted password used in a python script.

I've created the app with its setup.xml page and the app is deployed on a search head cluster.

The problem is that under Manage Apps I cannot see "Set Up" button and if I click on "Launch App" I get 404 - not found.

 

This is my setup.xml file

 

<setup>
  <block title="New Crdential" endpoint="storage/passwords" entity="_new">
    <input field="name">
      <label>Username</label>
      <type>text</type>
    </input>
    <input field="password">
      <label>Password</label>
      <type>password</type>
    </input>
  </block>
</setup>

 

 

This is my app.conf file:

 

[install]
is_configured = 0

[ui]
is_visible = 1
label = my app

[launcher]
author = Marta Benedetti
description = my app
version = 1.0.0

 

 

Any idea?

 

Thanks a lot

Marta
