Testing the local credential provider
Determine if everything is property configured by performing isolated testing with CyberArk.
As part of the Application Access Manager software
install, the CLIPasswordSDK.exe
command line utility is
installed in the following folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\CyberArk\ApplicationPasswordSdk
Use this utility to test your CyberArk connection. For more information on testing with this utility, see the following sections in the CyberArk Credential Provider and ASCP Implementation Guide:
- Test the Credential Provider Installation
- CLI Application Password SDK
- Messages and Responses
To retrieve a single credential from CyberArk using this utility, perform the following steps:
- Go to the
ApplicationPasswordSdk
folder. - Enter the following command, replacing all values in curly braces, including
the curly braces, with actual values from your implementation:
Clipasswordsdk GetPassword /p AppDescs.AppID=”{your application ID}” /p Query=”Safe={your safe name};Folder={your folder name};Object={your object name}” /o Password,PassProps.Username,PassProps.Address
- Cached credentials in AAM
If you enabled credential caching in CyberArk Application Access Manager, credential requests for recently modified credentials can return cached values instead of the latest value stored in the vault.
