In webMethods 10.7 version is there any way we can extract password that is already configured for sftp user alias ?

path : Settings > SFTP > User Alias Settings

or there is any file which has these passwords stored ?

Do not try this in production.

  1. Set the “watt.security.ope.AllowInternalPasswordAccess” extended property to true on IS Admin page. Restart the IS for the change to take affect.
  2. Get the security handle from the sftpUserAliases.cnf file password tag under the SFTP User alias for which you need the password for. This file is at…IntegrationServer\instances\default\config\sftp location.
  3. Run the service pub.security.outboundPasswords:getPassword and pass the handle from step 2 as input along with isInternal set to true.
