How to delete a stored password? #192

Closed hsyhhssyy closed 1 year ago

hsyhhssyy commented 1 year ago

If I incorrectly entered a password when logging into a server for the first time and pressed the Key button, a wrong password would be saved somewhere unknown, causing an issue where I can't use the saved password for future logins and have to manually enter it each time.

How can I modify or delete the saved password? I have looked through all the documentation but couldn't find any instructions on this matter.

Does the signing out info in the README help?

This solution has partially solved my issue, as indeed I can log out and be prompted to delete the password here. However, there's another problem.

After clicking the link once, it not only asks whether to delete the password for the currently connected server but also for every account with the same name. I have more than 20 servers saved in the system, all with the same username, hence this dialogue box keeps popping up over 20 times. I need to carefully read the content of each pop-up to make sure I'm deleting the correct password.

Regardless, at least I now have a way to delete the stored passwords. Thank you for your help.

@hsyhhssyy I have created a new issue to track investigation of that.

@isc-bsaviano please liaise with InterSystems documentation team to get the information about the authentication provider rolled into the new docs.

@gjsjohnmurray Thank you very much for your response. I have installed this plugin, and after installation, credentials for the same username but different servers are now listed separately, as shown in the image below.

When I tried to log out of one of them, the prompt asking if I want to delete the password only includes the server I selected. So far, I have not discovered any other issues.
