Passing an encrpted password while using SAS VIYA CLI

[Jovian]

Hi, 

I would like to know if there is way to  passed a hashed/encrypted password while logging in via sas-viya cli 
for example -->
Instead of passing the actual plain text password 
eg - sas-viya auth login -u demo -p demopassword

How can I pass an encrypted password generated by openssl or any other process. 
eg - sas-viya auth login -u demo -p $6$4WukfXXuAf4LvN1d$vpEcrPB1SNjaENWbVMI2lY8T5b1V0FnyDBMVez97d4rnvHyw/XYlyKXax07XeMirtwc/T/j2PLd2yKmccPzXo/


Is this possible?

@Jovian , There isn't a way to encode the password that is passed to the CLI. You can use loginCode option instead.

Command: ./sas-viya auth loginCode

This loginCode option gives a URL that you can access from browser, sign in with an ID that has admin privileges and then get the authorization code. You can then use the authorization code for the CLI.
