I will move this to the WMB forum. Sorry about that.
Hello,
We are making a HttpRequest to invoke a web service. We have to pass the user id/password along with the request for authentication.
Currently, we have the id/password hardcoded in esql. We want to avoid storing the password in clear text form, and also we should be able to change the password easily if needed.
We would like to externalize the password (we can use the Get Environments plugin), but we dont want to store the password in clear text format, but encrypt it somehow.
Any suggestions on how to achieve this?
We are using Broker v5.9.
Thanks! |

There is no such version number. Perhaps you mean version 5.0.0.9, which would be fixpack 9 of version 5.
The answer to your question is "migrate to version 6.1". Really. This is not just a flip answer, this is the exact and specific truth. Version 6.1 does exactly what you want it to do, simply and easily with no code on your part. |

would you please elaborate on how to accomplish what 'protocol' is describing in 6.1?
we want to call a service that has user/pass fields in the request payload in order to retrieve an authenticated cookie. one approach is to hardcode appid/pass in the esql, but is there a way to somehow store an encrypted password in broker? |
