Password and SSH Key
If a service connection of the SSH type is configured for the resource from which the account was added, then it will be possible to generate or manually add not only a password, but also an SSH key. Also, for such accounts it is possible not to set a password: the setup wizard will display an additional item when setting a password - Not set.
