These checkboxes are only available if "Enable Encrypted Metadata" is turned on in the Encrypted Metadata settings.

Legacy Cleartext Metadata Content Types

Each content type can be individually enabled or disabled:

  • Password
  • TOTP
note

These checkboxes are only available if "Enable Legacy Cleartext Metadata" is turned on in the Encrypted Metadata settings.

Important Considerations

caution

Legacy metadata formats are deprecated and not recommended for new resources. Use only during transition or migration phases.

To enable the creation of resources with encrypted metadata:

  1. Enable encrypted metadata in the Encrypted Metadata settings
  2. Generate a metadata key in the Metadata Key settings
  3. Enable the desired content types on this page
