Store Nuvei Credentials Securely
Spin Up a Test Backend or Connect to an Existing Backend.
If you're wiring the app to a backend you already run, or deferring the backend for later, the agent never asks for or touches your Nuvei credentials. If you use the sample backend created by the agent, it checks whether Nuvei credentials are already stored on the machine. If they're missing, it opens a terminal for you to enter them directly. The agent only sees that you've set the credentials, it does not see what they actually contain.
The agent will run the terminal where you enter your credentials automatically, but you can also ask it to "Enter the credentials again", "Run the credentials command again" or "Override the credentials" - in which case you'll get another chance to enter them and the old ones will be deleted.
You enter your Nuvei account details directly on your own machine, where they are stored in your operating system's secure credential store. They are never shared with the AI assistant, never transmitted to any AI cloud, and never written into your project files.
- When the final build is finished the agent checks if you've entered your credentials.
- If not, it starts up a terminal where you will get a prompt to enter your credentials. You only ever do this once per machine. A new project re-uses what's already there.
- Saves them in your machine's password manager.
- Anytime they get used after that, the agent has no permission to view them.
- If you enter any of them as a prompt, it gets stopped before being sent to the cloud.
- If they were already present in a pre-built app, the agent will tell you they are leaked and to get new ones.
