I am trying to call the accounts API from a brick in JS.

normally call datasets via window.domo. However, no such luck with accounts API.

Need to be able to fetch account creds from storage in domo, for use in accessing external APIs.

Anyone found a solution for this?

    I don't believe this is possible within a Brick due to the security concerns around the storage and usage of account credentials.

    Thanks Grant. Do you know if it's possible with a custom app, or have a means you've used of storing creds, retrievable in a domo app, without exposing creds in the code?

    Kind of a dealbreaker on customization, as many of my calcs at bare minimum make calls to google cloud functions, to execute with additional compute + alt run times on the server side.

    One area I was looking at, is that custom connectors store creds securely, and call from metadata, but unsure if there is a way to call for creds in an app that is already authenticated into domo's API.. considering it's on the instance.

    This isn't available today to my knowledge. Are you able to use the external APIs to pull the data into a domo data source?
