Do remote powershell using RDM as inventory source
Hi,
I want to make a simple "Get-Process" on some hosts using RDM as inventory source.
The problem is to retrieve credentials. With the GUID, I can copy username and password. With powershell, I get an access denied (get-RDMSessionPasword)
What is the good way to get login/password or credientials (the best way I think) like the Get-credential return object ?
I don't want to use the RDM agent, sorry. I'm using Remote Powershel and ansible for some tasks.
Thanks you

Hello,
About the Get-RDMSessionPassword access denied, does the account who run the script has enough permission to view passwords?
What RDM version are you using?
What data source type are you connected to?
If it is Devolutions Password Server, what version are you using?
Best regards,

no, I can juste copy password (But I can copy un a notepad and view the password)

Version 14.1.3.0
Datasource is SQL.
What is the function 'Get-Credential' about ?? Why don't write a RDM function that return a Credential object ?? We can't get the password with a credential object if you think about security
Hello,
The Get-Credential cmdlet will prompt for credentials and you can save the information in a variable like this : $mycreds = Get-Credential
To get the credentials of a RDM entry and save it in a variable as a credential object, you can use the Get-RDMSessionCredentials cmdlet.$session = Get-RDMSession -Name "MyRDPConnection"$credentials = Get-RDMSessionCredentials -PsConnection $session

Thanks you, but it doesn't work
This is the code :

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
I had a discussion with an engineer and the Get-RDMSessionCredentials cmdlet will either return the session credentials ID or the credential type in which are saved the username and password.
So we are still looking on how to resolve the main issue as you will have to use the Get-RDMSessionUsername and Get-RDMSessionPassword cmdlets.
Could you please go in File - My Data Source Information and send the report using the small envelop on the top right corner? Please add a reference to this forum thread in the Message section.

Done
Hello,
Thank you for the report.
With the same user account configuration, I am unable to reproduce the issue and can get the username/password of any entries with Get-RDMSessionUsername or Get-RDMSessionPassword.
What entry type are you trying to get the credentials?
What is the value set for the entry's Credentials property?
