Hello everyone

We use the Appian(on premise version) and want to connect with MYSQL.
I think we can use user id and PW to make it work ,but it means we need to store this sensitive info in our service(GCP) and someone can get by check the detail
in configure.bat >..file.

So I want to know whether we can use the service account for database security authentication to connect with the DB or not ?

And we want to manage the db connection info by using GCP secret manager.

Did you try to make the connection using a connected system? Then, Appian will store your credentials encrypted.

Thanks Stefan

Because we use the on-premise version of Appian. According to the installation guide,
https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.2/Quick_Start_Installation_Guide.html

we need to store the user id and PW in configure.bat file at first,do you know how I can use the connect system while installing the Appian into my GCP service
