The credentials of a user, or of an external system that seeks access to a Process Commander system for service, consist of a URL, a user name, and a password.

These credentials authenticate a user or an external system, enabling log-in with appropriate security privileges. A user name must be the key to an Operator ID instance. The password may be stored in that instance (in encrypted form) or in a corporate directory service such as that provided by Microsoft Windows Active Directory.
