Managing Password Vaults

Search…
Provides the abilities to allow your users to create and manage their own password vaults.
A Vault is a reference to vault data held internally by the Password Manager. To access the contents of a vault, the vault is passed to the Password Manager.
Creating a Vault
To effectively manage a user's contents, a vault needs to be created. All vaults that will be created must have an association with a Sudo. A Sudo can be created and retrieved using the Sudo Profiles SDK. After either creating or retrieving a Sudo, the Sudo's id will be passed to the createVault method to asynchronously create a vault. If the Password Manager is successful a vault will be returned.
TypeScript
Swift
Kotlin
try {
    const sudoId = ""
    const vaultId = await client.createVault(sudoId)
    // `vaultId` contains the identifier of the newly created vault object.
} catch (error) {
    // handle errors or throw the error
    throw error
}
var client: PasswordManagerClient!
​
client.createVault(sudoId: "") { (result) in
    switch result {
    case .success(let vault):
        break
    case .failure(let error):
        break
    }
}
// val client: SudoPasswordManagerClient
// val sudoId: String
​
launch {
    try {
        val vault = withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {
            client.createVault(sudoId)
        }
    } catch (e: SudoPasswordManagerException) {
        // Handle/notify user of exception
    }
}
When creating vaults under a Sudo, be aware of Password Entitlement limits.
Retrieving Vaults
Use the listVaults method to retrieve a list of all the vaults owned by the user. Use the list to filter for vaults owned by a Sudo or access the contents of the vault by using the id of one of the vaults returned from the method.
TypeScript
 Swift
Kotlin
try {
    const vaults = await client.listVaults()
    // each vault in the array of vaults has an `id`
    // which can be used to access its items.
} catch {
    // Handle/notify user of errors
}
var client: PasswordManagerClient!
​
client.listVaults { (result) in
    switch result {
    case .success(let vaults):
        break
    case .failure(let error):
        break
    }
}
​
client.getVault(withId: "1") { (result) in
    switch result {
    case .success(let vault):
        break
    case .failure(let error):
        break
    }
}
// val client: SudoPasswordManagerClient
​
launch {
    try {
        val vaults = withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {
            client.listVaults()
            client.getVault("1")
        }
    } catch (e: SudoPasswordManagerException) {
        // Handle any errors related to fetching vaults
    }
}
Deleting a Vault
To delete a vault, call the deleteVault method and pass in the id of the vault you wish to delete.
TypeScript
Swift
Kotlin
try {
    const vaultId = "1"
    await client.deleteVault(vaultId)
} catch {
    // Handle/notify user of errors 
}
var client: PasswordManagerClient!
​
client.deleteVault(withId: "1") { (result) in
    switch result {
    case .success:
        break
    case .failure(let error):
        break
    }
}
// val client: SudoPasswordManagerClient
​
launch {
    try {
        withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {
            client.deleteVault("1")
        }
    } catch (e: SudoPasswordManagerException) {
        // Handle any errors related to vault deletion
    }
}
