Setting up DeepL API
- In DeepL API, create the credential this connection needs — the values listed in the table above. These are issued from your own DeepL API account, usually under its developer, API or integrations settings.
- In BusyBot, open Credentials → Add credential and choose DeepL API.
- Paste each value into the matching field and save.
- Add the DeepL node to a workflow, select this credential, and run a simple operation to confirm it authenticates.
Security
- Secret values are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, never written to logs, and readable only by your own account (to edit them).
- Grant the minimum scopes or permissions the operations you actually use require.
- Rotate the credential periodically, and immediately if it may have been exposed.
- Credentials are scoped to your account — a workflow cannot use another account's.
Frequently asked questions
Which BusyBot nodes use DeepL credentials?
One node: DeepL. Create the credential once and select it in that node.
What does a DeepL credential need?
2 fields: API Key, API Plan. Required: API Key, API Plan. The values come from your own DeepL account.
How are DeepL secrets stored?
Secret values are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, never written to logs, and scoped to your account: only you can open the credential again to edit it, and a workflow in another account cannot use it.
