Alteryx Server Run as user account credentials updated by a Password Manager Application

Our Organization uses a Password Manager to automate the update of service account credentials used in Windows Services. 

Would like to request the ability to leverage that functionality with the Run As user inside of Alteryx Server Settings used with Workflows. 

 

This would increase application security, while ensuring the process is automated, thereby limiting issues from human interaction.

 

Examples of these types of application are ERPM(Enterprise Random Password Manager), Thycotic Secret Server, and I am sure there are others.

Thank you for your idea!

 

We appreciate all the feedback we get, and to hear how users would like aspects of the server that impact daily behavior like password management improved is appreciated. I noticed you're relatively new to the idea boards (welcome!), so if you haven't yet be sure to check out our Submission Guidelines as they go over the process after an idea is submitted as well as we need from user engagement on an idea.

Fully agree with you @bbarbre  - it would be useful if Alteryx can integrate to a password vault for general credentials (for passwords etc) as well as run-as creds.

This would be a big step forward!

We would like to see Alteryx support vaults such as CyberArk, Azure Key Vault, and AWS Key Management System. Ideally the entire database connection string and other secrets could be stored and retrieved from the vault at workflow runtime.

We agree with the previous posters. We have a need to connect to Thycotic Secret Server through DCM external vault and currently unable to do so.
