Hi Guys.
We have this internal policy that all passwords should change bi monthly�.
The user we are using in LAE to make queries in our db have got a exception to change quarterly instead.
We have so many graphs that uses this database, so we decided to have a library containing a node with the password.
That way we should be able to only change the password in the library instead of in every graph.
This actually works great for all local graphs, however, for the graphs that I have uploaded and scheduled as LXA will not update that way.
Is the parameters "frozen" when it is uploaded as a LXA?

Yes it is "frozen". Just to make sure I understood - if you saved the password in your library node and then uploaded the library, you will need to re-save your LXA and upload again with the new password in it.

A possible way to not have to re-upload the library each time you change the password could be to feed the password into your graph as a run parameter?

Thanks Gerry.
Yes, it could be a better way, to override it in a parameter in the scheduler instead of uploading the LXA again.
But it is not a big problem, so i wont change anything at the moment, i just wanted to know if my assumption was correct
