The Edit Record window​

Records can be edited in the ​Edit Record​ window. The user name, user password, or user account can be edited here. Records with the ​CMS Account​ type can also be edited. Credentials for third-party FTP servers and API endpoints can also be edited. When you edit a record, you do not have to replace the corresponding placeholder that is in the FTP path of a relevant function. Mapp Engage always requeries the data when executing a function in the background.

In addition, the placeholder that Mapp Engage generates can be located here (see ​Credentials Placeholders​). The placeholders provide for the encryption of sensitive information. To use record placeholders, see Credentials Options​.

The appearance of the   ​Create New Record​   window varies depending on the record type

Credentials Placeholders​

After a record is saved, Mapp Engage generates a placeholder for each encrypted parameter. The placeholder that is generated is unique for each record that is displayed in the ​Edit Record​ dialog and cannot be edited here.

Each placeholder is generated with the value that is defined in the ​Name​ field of the record. Therefore, use a name that is unique and meaningful. Since the name is used in the placeholders for the encrypted data, the length of the name is limited to 50 alphanumeric characters.
