How can I add a credential to a pipeline job?

When I go to the credentials page of our jenkins server, I can view and update credentials but I don't see any way to add a new credential.

As my job is a pipeline job, there is no Bindings section in the job config.

The only way I can figure out how to add a credential is by going to a non-pipeline job, checking Use secret text(s) or file(s) under that job's Bindings, using that UI to add a credential, and then cancelling my changes.

This seems unwieldy as it requires me to edit a completely unrelated job just to add a credential.

yeah, the UX is a bit odd. i have to click Credentials, and then under that in the left nav there is a link to "System", and after i click that i can see "Global credentials (unrestricted)", and when i click that, finally i can see an "Add Credentials" link in the left nav.

this guide seems basically correct, but is missing the "System" step that is necessary for me.

for me the path ends up being: /credentials/store/system/domain/_/newCredentials
