Description Giovanni Campagna 2014-04-03 17:53:27 UTC
Every time you save a connection modified through nmcli edit, all saved secrets are lost, which is very inconvenient.
Comment 1 Jiri Klimes 2015-02-17 13:11:38 UTC
Before, when Update() D-Bus was called, NM replaced all the data including the secrets. So, when no secrets were present in the call, NM would clear all secrets. 

This is now fixed and NM retains previous secrets if no secrets are sent in Update() - bug 728920.
