Default Security Properties

[SAPSupport]

In Cloud Portal, when I open Environment -> Services -> hcs_common, I can define some properties in the text field. I have a few secure properties e.g. master encryption password, and I see those properties in other projects are defined on the right in the "Default Security Properties" section. How would I define e.g. master encryption password on the right in that section instead of putting the password itself in the text form together with all the other properties in hcs_common?

Hello customer,

Thanks for your patience.

The "Default Security Properties" normally contains only encryption keys generated automatically by the system.

It does not allow customer-generated properties.

To best way to address a master encryption password should be set in a static file instead of the Service Properties.

More details you can read in the SAP KBA: 3011191 - How to Manage a Static File Set in the Cloud Portal - SAP Commerce Cloud
