Exam DBDEA Topics: ingestion Difficulty: medium

A company runs several Lakeflow Connect managed connectors, and three of them read from PostgreSQL databases that all accept the same service-account credential. The platform team wants to store that credential exactly once, reference it from each connector, and guarantee that engineers who configure or use the connectors can never see the secret value itself. Where do Lakeflow Connect managed connectors hold their source credentials?
