How to obfuscate MID server proxy password?

[Bruno Fernande3]

I am following this knowledge article to route MID traffic through a proxy. However, when you set up glide.http.proxy_password as such, the properties will be displayed in plain text.

Is there a way to mask the value without using something like a before business rule? CISO will not allow this to be visible.

would be curious to know if anyone has tried this. same goes with setting up of MID as well wherein the config.xml shows the pwd in plain text and then gets encrypted after hitting SAVE.

Here also its similar, once saved then it wont be visible on the MID server page.

Encrypting the password caused the integration to fail, so I don't think that's an option here.

how did encryption fail the integration? you are trying to setup the proxy connection for the MID server right.

Hi, consider to introduce Field level ACL to restrict an access to the password value on the list view.
