Credentials

• What credentials are: API keys and secrets used by connectors and LLMs.
• Encryption: AES-256 at rest; decrypted in memory during execution only.
• Getting credentials: Add Exchange keys and LLM keys in the Credentials section.
• How credentials are used in workflows: You select a credential in a node's properties.
• Sharing safety: Credentials are scrubbed automatically when sharing.
• Best practices: Least privilege, rotate keys, sandbox/testing.

Quick start

1. Go to Credentials.
2. Add an Exchange credential (e.g., Alpaca) with your API key/secret.
3. Add an LLM credential (e.g., Claude) if you plan to use LLM nodes.
4. In your workflow, choose the credential in the relevant node.
