How to Delete License Key Stored by Plugin in IntelliJ Password Safe?

IntelliJ Platform
1

Hi,
I’m developing a plugin that stores a license key using IntelliJ’s PasswordSafe API. The plugin is using the “In native Keychain” option for password storage, but I don’t see any way to delete or clear that stored license key from the IDE UI.
I checked under:
Preferences / Settings > Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > Passwords,
but there’s no “Clear Passwords” or similar option visible, nor is there a way to inspect individual saved entries.

Is there any way (via the IDE) to manually delete or reset a stored password or credential, when using native keychain storage?

Hi,
Still looking for an answer here — is there any IDE-provided way to delete a stored password when using “In native Keychain” for PasswordSafe, or must this always be done via the OS keychain tool?

Would appreciate confirmation from JetBrains or anyone who’s done this before.

Hi @karol.lewandowski
Following up from my YouTrack post — I had initially asked this question here: How to delete license key stored by plugin in IntelliJ Password Safe?, but haven’t received any replies yet.

Could you please help clarify, or point me to the right resource/person who might know the answer? I’d really appreciate any guidance.

Thanks in advance!

There is no such possibility in the IDE UI. Please use the corresponding native UI for that.
