Azure Key Vault - Username / Password combination

Azure Key Vault - Username / Password combination

Hello,

We use Azure Key Vault to securely store credentials that certain service users use to run scripts without the credentials being stored in plain text in the script. We would also like to use these directly via the RDM.
 

The problem here is that in Azure a Key Vault entry can only contain one entry at a time, so I need two entries for a username and password combination. Unfortunately, the RDM only recognizes both as "password" when I want to link an entry. The RDM should be able to create a username and password combination from two Key Vault entries.

Hello,

We could add a new option to allow choosing a separate Key Vault entry for the username, but I want to clarify one thing first :

Because usernames aren't generally considered sensitive information, we didn't think people would have dedicated Key Vault entries for them.That's why we added a simple Username text field, which is used alongside the password when using the credential.

If this isn't usable in your scenario, I'll open a ticket to work on fetching the username from Key Vault.

Hi Jonathan,

Since we have a lot of usernames stored in the Azure Key Vault and would like to continue to do so for certain things, it would be very helpful for us to retrieve it here directly from the Key Vault.

Alright, opening an improvement ticket now. We'll update this thread as soon as we have an update.
