Secure proxy configuration for Information Services data sources

For data sources it's not possible to use a proxy with a password in a secure way as the password is visible in the connection URL.

With the move to cloud data sources this is an essential setting.

    Thanks we managed to get it working for the HANA JDBC by using the connection-properties in the data source template.

    How would this work for the Data Connection, the proxy password is visible in the Special properties settings. It seems there is no way to hide this?

    What kind of proxy and what kind of JDBC driver? Some drivers use HTTP as transport and for those you may specify proxy settings as standard JVM system properties. For others you may be able to specify the settings as connection properties rather than in the URL.
