Hi team,We have onboarded WINSCP as application in Beyondtrust password safe (cloud).  We are facing one challenge here where after application is launched using functional account , how can user transfer file from his local machine to RDS server. As WINSCP is launched to connect to target linux server , I want to understand since the file will be at user local machine , how can user move it to target linux system.I am sending the winscp application screen shot for reference . Awaiting response. Thanks in advance .Regards,Imran Aliyani

We are using a SmartRule with the Selection Attribute Criteria “Directory Attribute Match” using the employeeID attribute to map privileged account as dedicated account for a user only. This all works fine but we are worried if somehow the source system (e.g. AD) is messing with the data of this attribute employeeID, e.g. deleting the value (e.g. AD Admin not aware of that field, doing cleanup, etc.) or being tampered. This privileged acount then would be exposed to all the users (with access to that Managed Account group). How can this be prevented or found/reported which accounts may have an issue. I understand data quality is key here but with such a highly security related topic of privileged accounts one always has to assume that the source (AD) might be wrong and counter-measures must be possible on both side (source and consumer, i.e. PasswordSafe)

Hello Beekeeper Community,I’m curious to hear how others handle the following:Onboarding:easy: AD query, smart rules, and we have managed account. Offboarding:When a managed account deleted from AD , the password can’t locate the user. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a smart rule capability to identify which accounts are in Password Safe and which are not, to help with automated cleanup and management.How do you manage this process? Any tips or best practices would be appreciated!Regards,Maulik

Hi Beekepr ,  Does Password safe support password rotation base on managed asset /application session instead of time-based interval. Regards,Maulik

Hello team, could someone please share the prerequisites what we required to further onboard and the key information we need to request from the customer regarding this Azure? Below, I have outlined the relevant scenarios. Customer Mentioned: This is an Cloud SaaS Password Safe, Users are in Azure EntraID and servers are Domain-Joined. I have collected these below KB's :Configuration SAML Azure EntraID - https://beyondtrustcorp.service-now.com/csm?id=kb_article_view&sys_kb_id=dd8ff4a91b019e946fe95287624bcb37 EntraID FA MA - https://beyondtrustcorp.service-now.com/csm?id=kb_article_vi

I have a very unexpected behavior in my environment.I have multiple desktop applications and web applications created using both PS Automate and AutoIT.Sometimes a user tries to launch Application X, but instead Application Y is launched, and the wrong credentials are supplied.I need to know how to troubleshoot this issue.

Hi All, I am onboarding Toad in BeyondTrust Password Safe. If anyone has done this before, could you please share the .ini or .au3 file you used for passing connection details? Thanks in advance. 

I’m trying to see if it’s possible to utilize an SSH client manager like SuperPutty or mRemoteNG for managing SSH sessions that use SAML authentication.  We can not use the Direct Connect feature due to SAML being token based.  Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Everyone,I’m working on password rotation for a custom (unsupported) application using the BeyondTrust Password Safe Cloud REST API. Before proceeding, I want to confirm whether such an application can be integrated for automated password rotation.Can someone clarify:What technical criteria or parameters must a custom application support in order to be compatible with Password Safe Cloud’s REST API-based password rotation?For example: Required authentication methods? Connectivity or protocol requirements? Ability to expose credentials or respond to rotation workflows? Any mandatory fields/settings needed in Password Safe for custom platforms? Any limitations or known restrictions for cloud API rotations? Any guidance or examples from your experience would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

Hi All,I'm provisioning a new on-prem BeyondTrust Password Safe to test the reporting and analytics features on BeyondInsight 25.1.1.The issue is that the Domain section shows 'This list contains no data,' which prevents me from proceeding with report generation.Did I miss a necessary configuration step? Any help with this issue is appreciated.Thanks. 

So, been getting repeated ongoing asks from our Compliance Team, and this is their ask: for a specific Managed Account, produce a report of every user that can access that credential? Anyone ever been able to pull that off? Using Analytics would be fine, just have not been able to find a report like that.

Hi everyone,Can you please help me understand how to create the custom reports for On-Prem Password Safe. I tried the Pivot Grids feature and it is not much helpful. Thanks,

I am getting an invalid credential when launching a web application. I tested the managed account and password is correct but when I inject this using the ps_automate, it comes up with an invalid credential. I have also added the “FixupPassword=1” under the General section since my password contains spaces. Anything I am missing here or should be trying out? 2025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] BEGIN2025/11/04 13:56:52 [Function] execute_task_sequence_webapp (TaskSequence1)2025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] [INI] WaitLoginWindowDelay=02025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] [INI] XPathElement=//*[@id="username"]2025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] [INI] XPathValue=%username%2025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] [INI] XPathAction=2025/11/04 13:56:52 [Function] insert_custom_strings (*MASKED*)2025/11/04 13:56:52 [Custom string] username2025/11/04 13:56:52 [TaskSequence1] END2025/11/04 13:56:54 [TaskSequence2] BEGIN2025

Hello,We are using the secret safe api to pull secrets and plug them into our applications. When testing our script in  PowerShell it works, however, in Python, we are seeing a 404 error. Any idea? Our RunAs user is a domain account. TIA!

We setup the System Event Viewer in the WebConsole for reviewing appliance logs centrally.After doing so, we saw the database balloon in size, it appears the purge settings were not operating successfully.Does anyone know how this purge is supposed to work?Is there a daily scheduled action that runs? A scheduled overnight job? Or is the purge expected to continually happen such that only the last X days of data is retained?

Hello, we have a need to create a known managed account ( this is a local account on system) for multiple systems along with password. We do not want to rotate this password and is same across these systems. (This will not be used unless break-glass scenarios and has approvals + alerting configured). I am looking for a way to automatically sync the password.  I am able to create the account on newly onboarded system using managed system smart rule but can’t set the password.For subscriber/sync accounts , I think it requires Auto Password Management enabled .To do it via API , I think I will need to fetch the cred and send it back from an endpoint running the script. We want to avoid this and manage it within PS or the appliance.Is there a way to trigger this via smart rules . The managed system will be created using API and account created using smart rule. 

Does anyone here have experience with this issue with the PasswordSafe service? After updating to BI version 25.1.1, all of a sudden the services were not able to start. I also check the event viewer, and it says there was a missing DLL. as shown in the screenshot:

Hello Is it possible to disable the personal folder in secret safe? can btadmin see the secrets in personal folder? If a user stores in personal folder , and the user leaves organization, we still need to be able to fetch the secrets saved by the user for the enterprise applications. So can we not show personal folders and only show the safes we create for the users?

Hi everyone,We’re currently working on implementing BeyondTrust Password Safe Cloud in a multi-tiered architecture and are looking for detailed documentation or a white paper that outlines recommended setup for Data Center (DC), Disaster Recovery (DR), and UAT environments.If anyone has access to or has previously received the official BeyondTrust Password Safe Cloud architecture white paper ?Appreciate any pointers from the community 🙏
