# Set whose connections projects use for a plugin

> Sets the plugin's default credential policy, which every project enabling it takes, and the policy of every project that enables it now, replacing what each set for itself; it applies to every authenticated MCP server of the plugin. Null exactly for a plugin none of whose servers authenticates: otherwise mcp_credential_policy_required, and a policy for one that needs none mcp_credential_policy_not_applicable. The org policy is refused with mcp_credential_policy_org_unavailable unless the organization has its own connection to every authenticated server of the plugin.
