The Set Credential action edits the value of a credential. The Set Credential action currently only works on a locally-created credentials (i.e., credentials in the botflow), not credentials created in the Credential Vault in Nintex RPA Central.

Note: The Actions Quick Reference provides a complete list of actions that you can print for easy reference.

Create a Set Credential action

1. Click Data and select Set Credential from the Actions list.

2. Select the Credential that you want to set.

3. Select the Field that you want to set:

   • Username

   • Password

   • Field: test. This field is only available if it exists in the credential.

4. Enter the Value to which you want to set the credential. Optionally, click the Magic Wand to use the Expression Builder.

5. If needed, adjust the Run error task settings to fine tune how the action runs.

   • Run error task: A botflow containing an error task automatically runs the error task in the event of an error. If the botflow does not contain an error task, the botflow stops in the event of an error.
   • Stop on error: The botflow stops in the event of an error.
   • Ignore errors: The action is skipped in the event of an error and the botflow attempts to execute the next action.

6. (Optional) Add a Note to document special instructions or functionality.

7. Toggle the run switch to Run and click OK to execute and save the action.
