The Credential Vault in Dynatrace is used to securely store sensitive data such as usernames, passwords, and tokens for capabilities that require authentication.
It is used by:
Synthetic Browser monitors for login simulations and scripted interactions
Synthetic HTTP monitors for authenticated API testing
Dynatrace Extensions v2 for connecting to external systems that require credentials
Other options are not applicable:
Dynatrace API uses tokens but not stored via Credential Vault in this context
Dynatrace Apps do not rely on Credential Vault for authentication storage
This ensures secure handling of credentials without exposing them in plain text.
