Note

By enabling auto-integrated login, you authorize Vault Toolbox to automatically authenticate and read Vault data using your existing Vault session.

To log in using integrated login:

1. From a browser tab with an active Vault UI session, select the Vault Toolbox extension from your browser's top navigation bar. The Vault Toolbox login page appears in a new tab. The Integrated tab has already been selected.
2. Confirm the Vault DNS. For example, myvault.veevavault.com. It should be automatically populated.
3. Optional: Select the Enable Auto-Integrated Login (All Vaults) toggle. When enabled, Vault Toolbox automatically logs you in when you select the extension from an active Vault UI session, skipping the login page.
4. Click Log in with Existing Vault Session.

Alternatively, you can enable or disable auto-integrated login by navigating to Settings () > General in Vault Toolbox and selecting the Integrated Login toggle. When enabled, you can log in to Vault Toolbox automatically from a browser tab with an active Vault UI session.
