Deprecated Credentials Migration Guide

Why are credentials being deprecated?

Since we added the ability to use dependencies in YepCode, it has created a maintainability challenge supporting all package versions with Credentials. As a result, we are deprecating them. You can still securely initialize your clients using environment variables.

How to migrate

We’ll use dependencies and team variables to migrate your current credentials. Lets see a real example:

JavaScript

For this example we’ll use the nodemailer credential integration (other credentials will follow the same approach). Your current process code should look like this:

const mailClient = yepcode.integration.nodemailer("nodemailer-credentials");

await mailClient.sendMail({
  from: "YepCode 🤖 <info@yepcode.io>",
  to: "support@yepcode.io",
  subject: "YepCode nodemailer credential",
  text: "This is a message from YepCode using nodemailer credential",
});

console.log("Email sent");

1. Import the required dependency package (JavaScript)

const nodemailer = require("nodemailer");

const mailClient = yepcode.integration.nodemailer("nodemailer-credentials");

await mailClient.sendMail({
  from: "YepCode 🤖 <info@yepcode.io>",
  to: "support@yepcode.io",
  subject: "YepCode nodemailer credential",
  text: "This is a message from YepCode using nodemailer credential",
});

console.log("Email sent");

2. Initialize the client (JavaScript)

Follow the package docs to know how to initialize the client instead of using the credential integration, in this case we are using the createTransport method from nodemailer usage section.

Note

You may look our Recipes Platform to find examples of how to use dependencies in your processes.

const nodemailer = require("nodemailer");

const mailClient = yepcode.integration.nodemailer("nodemailer-credentials");
const mailClient = nodemailer.createTransport({
  host: process.env.nodemailerHost,
  port: 587,
  secure: false, // If SSL is required, you'd need to set secure: true
  connectionTimeout: 5000,
  auth: {
    user: process.env.nodemailerUser,
    pass: process.env.nodemailerPass,
  },
});

await mailClient.sendMail({
  from: "YepCode 🤖 <info@yepcode.io>",
  to: "support@yepcode.io",
  subject: "YepCode nodemailer credential",
  text: "This is a message from YepCode using nodemailer credential",
});

console.log("Email sent");

3. Save the process (JavaScript)

Hit the Save button in your process status bar (bottom right) to update it.

4. Install the missing dependencies (JavaScript)

After saving the process you’ll see some alerts in the process editor related to missing dependencies and variables:

We’ll need to add them before executing the process.

4.1 Add missing dependencies (JavaScript)

YepCode will automatically detect missing dependencies for your source code. You can see the missing dependencies by clicking the Dependencies button in the process status bar:

Add the missing dependencies by clicking the Add all button.

Install the missing dependencies by clicking the Install button on the pop up notification.

4.2 Add missing variables (JavaScript)

YepCode will automatically detect missing variables for your source code. You can see the missing variables in your process right sidebar:

Add the missing variables by clicking on each one of them and filling the required information:

Note

Remember to secure sensitive variables.

Python

For this example we’ll use the http requests credential integration (other credentials will follow the same approach). Your current process code should look like this:

http = yepcode.integration.http("http-credential")

try:
    response = http.get("https://yepcode.io")
    print(response.text)
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error sending request: {e}")

1. Import the required dependency package (Python)

import requests

http = yepcode.integration.http("http-credential")

try:
    response = http.get("https://api.github.com/user")
    print(response.json())
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error sending request: {e}")

2. Initialize the client (Python)

Follow the package docs to know how to initialize/use the package instead of using the credential integration, in this case we are using the get method from the requests package.

Note

You may look our Recipes Platform to find examples of how to use dependencies in your processes.

import requests
import os

http = yepcode.integration.http("http-credential")

try:
    headers = {
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('GITHUB_TOKEN')}",
        "Accept": "application/vnd.github.v3+json"
    }
    response = requests.get("https://api.github.com/user", headers=headers)
    print(response.json())
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error sending request: {e}")

Execute your process

You can now execute your process as usual 🎉.
