Set up Schema Registry credentials in Duaer

Store Schema Registry 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.

Connect to a Schema Registry

The Duaer Schema Registry credential lets the Kafka and Kafka Trigger nodes encode and decode Avro messages:

  • URL is the Schema Registry address, such as https://schema-registry-domain:8081.
  • Self-hosted, Username and Password are the registry account. On Confluent Cloud, use the API key and secret created for Schema Registry, which differ from the Kafka cluster keys.

Schema Registry fields in Duaer

In Duaer, choose Schema Registry when you create a credential, then fill in these fields:

  • URL (required): URL of the schema registry.
  • Authentication: Default: Basic Auth. Options: Basic Auth, None.
  • Username (required): Username or Confluent Cloud API key. Shown when Authentication is Basic Auth.
  • Password (required, secret): Password or Confluent Cloud API secret. Shown when Authentication is Basic Auth.

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

Duaer nodes that use it: Kafka, Kafka Trigger.

Save the connection in Duaer

Open Credentials and create Schema Registry. 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 Schema Registry secret values appear in Duaer node parameters?

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

What usually stops a Schema Registry 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 Schema Registry expects, then confirm you can create credentials in that project.
