Managing derived credentials on Android devices

In the PIV-D Manager app for Android, you can:

  • View an Entrust derived credential.

  • Delete an Entrust derived credential.

    Deleting a derived credential unauthorizes all AppConnect apps that use the credential. An app is unauthorized on its next check-in.

  • Get a new Entrust derived credential.

    This action replaces the existing derived credential.
