You can use a credential for HTTP, FTP, SSH/SFTP, and for job execution.
HTTPSelect this check box if the credential is referenced in jobs that call Web services which require basic HTTP authentication.
FTPSelect this check box if the credential is referenced in jobs that connect to FTP servers using /system/ftp functions.
SSH/SFTP (Advanced Edition)Select this check box if the credential is referenced in jobs that connect to SFTP servers using the /system/sftp functions. For details, see the section /system/sftp.
Select this check box if the credential identifies an operating system user account. In order to run successfully, any job requires a credential with this usage enabled. Ensure that the user account identified by the credentials has sufficient rights on the operating system. For example, if credentials are going to be referred to in a job that writes to a directory, the user account must have rights to write to that directory.
