App Connect

Hi Folks,

we have the situation where we need to store a passkey and return it with every http response. I figured that the mqsivault would be the right place to put this - but I can't see anyway to get the value from the store in e.g. an ESQL node. this key would change every month so I also don't know if the flow would have to be restarted every month as well to pick the new value up.

We could put the value into a DB but that sounds very heavy for this problem.

A user-defined policy would also be an option - but the passwd would then be in plain text. And, the flow gets restarted whenever the policy changes (not the end of the world but annoying)

What's the right way to do this please?

many thanks !
John.

Hi John,

You can access credentials from a Java Compute node as of ACE v12.0.9.0. See this docs topic:
