The credentials of a user, or of an external system that seeks access to a PRPC 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.
For connector rules, credentials submitted for authentication can make use of global resource settings rather than fixed values.
