Set up Cisco Umbrella credentials in Duaer

Store Cisco Umbrella connection details in Duaer for digital-organization nodes to use at runtime. Secrets are protected by the instance encryption key and are not written into node parameters.

Create a Cisco Umbrella API key

The Duaer Cisco Umbrella API credential:

  1. In the Umbrella dashboard, open Admin > API Keys, click Add, and pick the scopes to allow.
  2. Put the generated API Key and Key Secret in API Key and Secret. The secret is shown once. Duaer exchanges them for a session token.

Duaer has no dedicated node for this service. In the HTTP Request node, set Authentication to Predefined Credential Type and pick the Cisco Umbrella API credential. Refer to custom operations.

Cisco Umbrella API fields in Duaer

In Duaer, choose Cisco Umbrella API when you create a credential, then fill in these fields:

  • API Key (required, secret)
  • Secret (required, secret)

When you save, Duaer tests the connection with these values.

Save the connection in Duaer

Open Credentials and create Cisco Umbrella. Fill in the key, OAuth, or server fields. After you save, digital-organization nodes reference this credential instead of putting the secret in a parameter.

Credential values are protected by the instance encryption key. If you change or lose that key, stored credentials cannot be decrypted. See the hosting notes on encryption keys.

Who can use this credential

Who can see or edit it follows projects and roles. Do not paste secrets into chat or variables. External vaults are covered under external secrets.

Questions

Do Cisco Umbrella secret values appear in Duaer node parameters?

No. In Duaer, Cisco Umbrella secrets stay in the credential. Nodes only reference the credential. Execution records should not show the plaintext secret either.

What usually stops a Cisco Umbrella credential from saving in Duaer?

Wrong fields, an OAuth callback that does not match the instance URL, or a role that cannot create credentials. Check the fields Cisco Umbrella expects, then confirm you can create credentials in that project.
