```Java
import io.milvus.param.*;

CreateCredentialParam param = CreateCredentialParam.newBuilder()
        .withUsername("user")
        .withPassword("password")
        .build();
R<RpcStatus> response = client.createCredential(param)
if (response.getStatus() != R.Status.Success.getCode()) {
    System.out.println(response.getMessage());
}
