### Description Right now it looks like a username and password is needed to connect, e.g. https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/howto/connection.html#connection-cli. It would be great to support IAM auth with auto-refreshing credentials. ### Use case/motivation Modern security practices include moving away from username/password to IAM auth, e.g. to avoid stale unrotated credentials and risks of leaking them. In some companies, access to the database via username/password might not even be supported anymore. To have CLI usable, IAM auth needs to be supported. Technically, people can get a temporary password for 15 min, but refreshing it manually would be pretty frustrating. ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [ ] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
