I have several actions that require using specific user and its encrypted password saved on some text file.

When I run FB project I read the content of the text file, run some tool which decrypt the password and save it in a variable which being used by specific actions.

I would like to save password under windows credentials so FB will retrieve the password from it and in addition will avoid writing the password in FB logs.

Is it possible ?

I like this idea - we’ve been considering doing something like this for a while. Needs research before I can give a definitive answer.
