Hi, I’m trying to setup Https Request for Teal.com and when I add in my credentials and save I go back in to check it and Password changes to __n8n_BLANK_VALUE_e5362baf-c777-4d57-a609-6eaf1f9e87f6 everytime even though the Username and Pw is correct. Please help, thanks
Hey,
This __n8n_BLANK_VALUE_e5362baf-c777-4d57-a609-6eaf1f9e87f6 value is an internal constant used to represent password values at the user interface, and it shouldn’t really be visible to you as an user. The real password is safely stored on the backend database, and for security reasons after the credential has been created it isn’t loaded on the user interface anymore. When workflows are run they load the real credentials from the database as they need them.
So after you created the credentials and saved them they should be now saved to the database and you should be good to start using them. Don’t be alarmed if the password value you get by copying the password on the credentials page is this value, that is expected!
If you are still struggling at using the credentials at your HTTP request node you should check the credential settings you have entered there, choosing the correct authentication mechanism that matches this API that you’re connecting to.

Sounds good, I’m creating a bot to apply for jobs for me that then adds the jobs I applied to into tealhq.com (job tracker) But it keeps telling me Problem in node ‘Teal Acct‘
Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials? (all I want it to do for this part is remember my Teal login so it won’t have to ask me each time etc)
