Here `{{Password}}` and `{{EncodedPassword}}` are templatized variables for the password generated by the dynamic secret.
Note that the `-` characters and the empty lines found at the end of the examples are necessary based on the LDIF format.
**OpenLDAP** Example:
```
dn: cn=sheencaps capadngan,ou=people,dc=acme,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: userPassword
password: {{Password}}

```
**Active Directory** Example:
```
dn: cn=sheencaps capadngan,ou=people,dc=acme,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: unicodePwd
unicodePwd::{{EncodedPassword}}
-
```
`{{EncodedPassword}}` is the encoded password required for the `unicodePwd` field in Active Directory as described [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/active-directory/change-windows-active-directory-user-password).

<Step title="Generate dynamic secrets">
Once you've successfully configured the dynamic secret, you're ready to generate on-demand credentials.
To do this, simply click on the 'Generate' button which appears when hovering over the dynamic secret item.
Alternatively, you can initiate the creation of a new lease by selecting 'New Lease' from the dynamic secret lease list section.
![Dynamic Secret](/images/platform/dynamic-secrets/dynamic-secret-generate-redis.png)
![Dynamic Secret](/images/platform/dynamic-secrets/dynamic-secret-lease-empty-redis.png)
When generating these secrets, it's important to specify a Time-to-Live (TTL) duration. This will dictate how long the credentials are valid for.

<Tip>
Ensure that the TTL for the lease fall within the maximum TTL defined when configuring the dynamic secret.
</Tip>
Once you click the `Submit` button, a new secret lease will be generated and the credentials from it will be shown to you with an array of DN's altered depending on the Creation LDIF.
