Hudu Bulk Edit or Variables

avatar

So we want to move all our customer credentials into Hudu so they can access them in real time using a read only account. Currently we have all creds stored in RDM. I'm noticing that the new entry for Hudu requires the host and API key to be input directly into the credential entry. If we continue to put entries in RDM with a reference back to Hudu for the actual password, and that API key needs to be refreshed or changed, how do we change it in bulk? I don't see a bulk edit selection that allows the API or Host to change. I tried using a global variable but it appears that RDM doesn't support a variable in the API key field. If we get a few hundred entries and need to make a change, it's going to suck. Help before we commit to storing our passwords this way.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out regarding this,

I have a few questions which you can hopefully answer.

  • Which version of RDM are you using?
  • Which type of data source are you using?


I've done some tests on my end and I've been able to change the "Host" field using "Custom PowerShell Command" you can do so by performing a "Right-click" on your entry and selecting "Edit" -> "Edit (Special Actions)" -> "Custom PowerShell Command", this can be done on multiple entries at once.

$connection.Credentials.HuduServer = "HostName"; 
$RDM.Save();

I've not been able to achieve the same results for the "API" field, I will contact our engineering department regarding this.

Let me know,

Best regards,

Yeah thanks for the answer but for sure, API token is most probably the item that would need to be changed more than the host. If you could find out if there is a way. Powershell is fine. Probably easier that way honestly.

Hello,

Thank you for your patience,

Using the same method as for the "Host" field you can edit the "API" field by using the following:

$connection.Credentials.HuduApiKey = "APIKeyFromScript";
$RDM.Save(); 


Let me know if this works for you,

Best regards,
