### Built-in Credential Providers
523
+
524
+
The package includes several credential providers for different use cases:
525
+
526
+
| Provider | Persistence | Setup | Best For |
527
+
|----------|-------------|-------|----------|
528
+
| `ArrayCredentialProvider` | None (memory) | None | Testing, single requests |
529
+
| `CacheCredentialProvider` | Cache driver | None | Quick prototyping, APIs |
530
+
| `SessionCredentialProvider` | Session lifetime | None | Web apps with user sessions |
531
+
| `FileCredentialProvider` | Permanent (disk) | None | CLI tools, bots |
532
+
533
+
**CacheCredentialProvider** - Uses Laravel's cache system (file cache by default):
534
+
```php
535
+
// config/client.php
536
+
'credential_provider' => \SocialDept\AtpClient\Providers\CacheCredentialProvider::class,
537
+
```
538
+
539
+
**SessionCredentialProvider** - Credentials cleared when session expires or user logs out:
540
+
```php
541
+
// config/client.php
542
+
'credential_provider' => \SocialDept\AtpClient\Providers\SessionCredentialProvider::class,
543
+
```
544
+
545
+
**FileCredentialProvider** - Stores credentials in `storage/app/atp-credentials/`:
546
+
```php
547
+
// config/client.php
548
+
'credential_provider' => \SocialDept\AtpClient\Providers\FileCredentialProvider::class,
549
+
```
550
+
551
+
For production applications with multiple users, implement a database-backed provider as shown below.
