Passing Credential Variable to Python Script

Cadet | Tier 2

I want to add my credential variable to a Python script, but the script requires the data to be in string format. Updating these details in the config file and passing them on could lead to a data violation.

Note: The client will not accept the use of the Bot store.

 

Looking for your kind support here .

 

Thanks ,

Only certain Automation Anywhere actions can use credential vault variables. Python Script is not one of them.

For a workaround, if they have their own database server, you could write the Python script to query the database and get the credentials from there, using a restricted account.
