Hi,
I’m using the new Credentials app feature (under Build → Features → Credentials, not the legacy credentials field) to authenticate with a third‑party service in monday workflows.
Behavior I’m seeing:
-
User installs the app and connects an account via the Credentials feature.
-
User then uninstalls the app.
-
Later, the same user reinstalls the app.
-
When they go to connect again, they still see the old credentials available to select, which makes it look like we didn’t delete anything on uninstall.
From the docs, I understand that:
-
Credentials are securely stored and scoped to the app, and can be reused across workflow features.
-
Privacy & security requirements say that when an app is de‑authorized/uninstalled, app data should be deleted within 10 days unless there is explicit consent to retain it.
However, I couldn’t find any documentation that explains:
-
Whether credentials created via the Credentials app feature are supposed to persist across uninstall/reinstall.
- Whether there is any API, setting, or documented mechanism for:
-
Automatically deleting credentials on uninstall, or
-
Manually purging credentials for a given account/user.
-
Questions:
-
Is this behavior (credentials still visible after uninstall & reinstall) intended, or is it a bug?
- If it’s intended, what is the recommended way to:
-
Communicate this to users, and/or
-
Trigger deletion of credentials when the app is uninstalled?
-
-
Is there any roadmap or plan to tie the Credentials app feature lifecycle more tightly to app uninstall events?
Any official clarification or best‑practice guidance would be very helpful. If there’s relevant documentation I’ve missed, please point me to it.
Thanks!
