    • Component/s: plain-credentials-plugin
    • Environment:
      Jenkins LTS version 2.176.4, plain credential plugin version 1.5

      After creating a SecretText credential, the displayName of the credential uses the Description field only and does not use the ID of the  credential as part of the displayName.
