What's this — optional, for portals that need login
Some permit portals (login-walled eTRAKiT installs, certain Accela tenants) require an account before they'll show the search form. If you have credentials for those AHJs (often the same login you use for your own permit-pulling), you can store them here. PermitSleuth will use them to log in on your behalf during scrapes — only for jurisdictions where you check the "I authorize" box.
Optional URL override: if the AHJ moved their portal or our default URL is wrong, paste the correct one in the URL field. We'll use yours instead of our default for that jurisdiction.
Passwords are encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest. We never log them and they never leave the scraper process during a search.
