Introduction to Credentials

Credentials are authentication information necessary to access external services or APIs on the Aumo platform. They allow you to configure and manage different types of credentials securely and centrally.

What are Credentials?

Credentials are authentication data (such as API keys, tokens, passwords, etc.) used to access external services or resources on the platform. Each credential can be associated with different types of services and can be reused in various contexts within the organization.

Main Features

  • Add new credentials: Configure different types of credentials for external services
  • Manage existing credentials: View, edit, and manage credentials that are already configured
  • Organize by type: Categorize credentials by type for easier management
  • Security: Store credentials securely and centrally

Types of Credentials

The Aumo platform supports different types of credentials, each with its own specific configurations and requirements. The credential creation process is divided into two main steps:

  1. Select Type: Choose the type of credential you want to create
  2. Configure Details: Fill in the necessary information for the selected credential

Supported External Services

The Aumo platform allows integration with various external services through credentials, including:

  • Google Drive / Organizational Google Drive: Integrate with Google Drive to access documents and folders
  • Confluence Cloud: Connect to Confluence to import pages and knowledge spaces
  • Jira Cloud: Integrate with Jira to access tickets and project documentation
  • SharePoint / OneDrive: Connect to Microsoft 365 to access libraries and documents
  • Web Scraper / Custom APIs: Configure integrations with custom APIs using API keys or Bearer tokens
  • MCP Servers: Set up MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to extend assistant capabilities with external tools
  • AI Studio: Integrate with external AI services to enhance processing and analysis functionalities

These credentials can be reused in Knowledge Sources, Knowledge Collections, MCPs, and other workflows that need to authenticate with external services, enabling centralized and secure integration with your organization's systems.
