Any way to modify Orion.Credential table (SAM credentials) from SDK?

Looking at a dynamic pw system and would like to investigate updating SAM template credential PW through API.

Thoughts?

Common request, but not supported yet.

Is there any update on this? Looking at SWQL Studio, my assumption is that this is still a no unfortunately.

Still no.

Unfortunate, but thanks.

I'm being pressed with the same request from our security department. Anyone know if this is possible yet?

The Orion.Credential entity has an UpdateUsernamePasswordCredentials verb that takes the following parameters:

[int32]credentialId
[string]name
[string]username
[string]password

I haven't used it yet, but it should be able to update anything that's has a CredentialType of SolarWinds.Orion.Core.SharedCredentials.Credentials.UsernamePasswordCredential.

As an FYI - I just invoked this verb and the name did update (so I'm assuming the username and password did as well).

You may find this post relevant to what you are looking to achieve. Not all credentials types in Orion.Credentials can be updated in this manner, If your application monitors are inheriting credentials from the node, it may be enough for you to update at the node level.
