Masking Username/Passsword Within Anaplan Connect Scripts or Certificate Based Authentication

Does Anaplan Connect support or provide functionality to mask/encrypt usernames and passwords within the batch files created to run jobs? Or is there a preferred method in setting up Anaplan Connect in which you will not need to explicitly state usernames and passwords within the batch file itself.

Thanks for the help.

You can use a certificate in lieu of embedding credentials. See page 10/11 of the Anaplan Connect Guide PDF for instructions.

With certificates, make sure they are properly secured.
