Create and edit credentials

You can get to the credential modal by either:

• Opening the left menu, then selecting Credentials > Add Credential and browsing for the service you want to connect to.
• Selecting Create New in the Credential dropdown in a node.

Once in the credential modal, enter the details required by your service. Refer to your service's page in the credentials library for guidance.

When you save a credential, n8n tests it to confirm it works.
