We have been using a script triggered by IDP to set up devices with the correct password. Since the latest update we have been unable to use unencrypted passwords in our scripting. With the new security in place, how am I able to use a script to log into a device or create a new user account and password?
Hi Richard,
On the latest versions, it is no longer possible to read out parameters of type password from automation scripts. I assume this is what you're experiencing.
The only place where the password is still accessible (in plaintext), is in the driver itself. By updating the driver(s), it should be possible to perform your action.
I think we should also consider a new feature that uses the existing Credential Libraries in DataMiner to store regular credentials, that are usable anywhere in DataMiner.
I found this existing feature request for something similar: https://community.dataminer.services/new-feature-suggestions/option-to-link-a-credential-library-to-an-automation-script/
