method to overwrite password for data source connection instead of using config/environment variables

Open Rushikesh-Mule opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

for security reasons I don't want to store password in config or environment variables so my approach is to get secret password from some API and pass it to framework at runtime while making data source connection. so looking for any solution to pass password at runtime to connection methods. Thanks

Hi @Rushikesh-Mule , I’d like to contribute a feature that allows datasource passwords to be provided at runtime (e.g, fetched from a secret manager API) instead of storing them in configs or environment variables. This would help improve security.
Would you be open to a PR for this?
