Data Source Password prompt

Post by devodl »

Problem
We are connecting to Documentum through DFS as a Data Source.
Oxygen requires that we predefine a password in the Data Source Connection definition. Passwords are subject to change regularly due to Corporate policy.
When Oxygen attempts to connect using an old password it will fail and can result in the Users corporate credentials (e.g. LDAP) being locked. Furthermore if an enterprise uses two factor authentication (e.g. PIN + SecurID) the Users password is different at any given time.
Proposal
Add the ability for Oxygen to optionally prompt the User for their password (checkbox) on each Data Source Connection.

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback.

I've logged your request to our issue tracking tool. This will be analyzed and implemented in a future version of Oxygen.
