[Feature Request] Implement Shared Credential Management for Enhanced Service and API Authentication

Open YamonBot opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Reason for Suggestion

To streamline the authentication process across various services and APIs, particularly within Microsoft ecosystems, where this issue is notably severe.

Content of the Proposal

Expand the existing variable management system in Langflow to include shared credential management. This would enable the system to retain authentication information for each service and API, reducing the need for repeated authentication processes and enhancing overall security and usability.

Technical Considerations

  1. Develop a secure storage system for credentials that can be accessed by necessary services without compromising security.
  2. Integrate with Microsoft services using appropriate APIs that support shared credentials.
  3. Implement robust encryption mechanisms to protect stored credentials.

Potential Use Cases

  1. Users can interact seamlessly with multiple Microsoft services without needing to re-authenticate for each service.
  2. Reduces the administrative burden of managing multiple credentials and enhances security by minimizing exposure to credential theft.
