Hey everyone, not so much a connector or infra issue but say you have a password from a vendor - and you cannot find it in our vault, I found airbyte.secrets in the postgres db but the
airbute_workspace_${workspace_id}_secret_${whatisthis_id}_v1
does not align with anything remotely to the connectors name. Is there any documentation from the infra side that shows what that "whatisthis_id" and where it links back to a connector in postgres?

Hmm, I don't know enough to give you a confident answer yet. However, I can provide you with some information on how Airbyte handles credential management. For Airbyte Cloud, credentials are fetched using HTTPS and stored in Google Cloud's [Secret Manager](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/security#credential-management). For Airbyte Open Source, credentials are stored in the Airbyte application database. You can find more information on securing Airbyte Open Source and its credential management [here](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/security#securing-airbyte-open-source). If you need to access the default
airbyte-db
Postgres database, you can follow the instructions provided [here](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/configuring-airbyte-db#accessing-the-default-database-located-in-docker-airbyte-db). This guide also lists the tables created in the database, which might help you find the information you're looking for. If you still have questions, I recommend checking the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com) or asking for help in the [Airbyte community](https://discuss.airbyte.io).

nevermind, figured it out the airbyte.actor table contains the json that links to what secret is which.
Thanks for the help.
