Jul Tomten commented on NIFI-8638:
----------------------------------
Think it works now.
However I still think it is wrong that it displays "sensitive value set" in the
password field when it refers to parameter context. If it refers to paramter
context it should display the value of the parmeter #\{mypassword}
You can find out by going to the parameter context and there see which
processors are using the parameters.
I think I got hit becasue of a very difficult password containing "1lIO0|I"
many of those characters
> passwords - sensiteve context properties - not working

> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: 1.13.2
> Environment: Linux RedHat
> java 11 sapmachine-jdk-11.0.10_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
> Reporter: Jul Tomten

> An issue with passowords for the getJMS and InvokeHTTP processors - I want
> to store the passwords in the "context properties" and reference from the
> processor but it doesn't work. I'm on NiFi 1.13.2. I enter for
> example #\{mypassword}
> in the password value field in the processor BasicAuthenticationUsername and
> it works setting that but after activating and reopening the value field
> reads "sensitive value set" and the little arrow to the right is pointing up
> (arrow indicating parameter is not yet stored in context). Expected is that
> the arrow point to the right (indicating that the value is fetched from the
> context). The password in the context properties isn't used when testing and
> login fails.
> To make it run it is necessary to set the password in the processor instead
> fo referencing with #[mypassword}.
