Thank you for feedback, I will add this to our list of feature requests.

Kind Regards,

We're still fighting duplicate old (before you introduced the Feature) secrets because users didn't use our Standards.

Users could use tokens (ex "%1") or perhaps magic words (ex "%username%") to populate the secret name with values from within the template.

Consider the following AD secret:

Domain: LOCAL
Username: srvAdmin
Password: ****
Notes: Test Account

A tokenized request may look something like
Secret Name: %1\%2 (%4)

and would render like
Secret Name: LOCAL\srvAdmin (Test Account)

A magic word implementation may look something like
Secret Name: %domain%\%username% (%notes%)

Would still render like
Secret Name: LOCAL\srvAdmin (Test Account)

This could help with consistency and reduce the redundant typing folks may do (I bet 9 out of 10 secret names probably contain the username).

Additional feature request: Don't just check the "Secret Name" for duplicates, also check the "Username" field.]]> Tue, 28 Aug 2012 22:07:38 GMT
