Windows Accounts

Windows Accounts are reusable Windows credentials backed by Ordyn secrets.

Open Library > Windows Accounts to manage them.

Use Windows Accounts when packages or endpoint Windows scripts need a reusable username and password without embedding credentials directly into workflow definitions.

Account Fields

Each Windows Account has:

• a name
• an optional description
• a username secret
• a password secret

The selected secrets are displayed by name. Ordyn does not display the stored plaintext secret values.

Managing Accounts

Use the page to:

• search existing Windows Accounts
• create accounts
• edit the selected username and password secrets
• delete accounts that are not used by workflows

Before deleting a Windows Account, check package and script workflows that may reference it.

Table

The table shows:

• account name
• description
• username secret name
• password secret name
• available actions

The table is paginated. Search by account name or related account text when there are many reusable credentials.

Creating And Editing Accounts

When creating or editing a Windows Account, select:

• name
• optional description
• username secret
• password secret

Both secrets are required. Create the secrets first in Secrets, then select them in the Windows Account form.

Windows Accounts are references to secrets, not copies of the secret values. Updating a selected secret changes what future workflows receive when they use that Windows Account.
