# Configure an embedded deployment in Duaer

When you embed Duaer in another product, configuration can overwrite credentials and related behavior.
## Credential overwrites <a href="#credential-overwrites" id="credential-overwrites"></a>

In an embedded setup, the host can inject credential values the end user never edits, so they do not enter the credential editor. Whether the worker enables the overwrites endpoint is documented with a link to this section.

Turn it on only for a real embedded deployment. Opening that endpoint to the public internet on ordinary self-hosting adds a way to change credentials. End-user connection boundaries are under [end-user credentials](/administer/manage-credentials/end-user-credentials.md).
## Questions

### What are credential overwrites when you embed Duaer?

The host injects credential values so the end user never opens the credential editor. Enable the overwrites endpoint only for a real embedded deployment. Do not open it to the public internet on ordinary self-hosting.
