Hi,

Pavan here,

I've been working on automation using shell script.
I'll connect ro snowflake using snowsql command. Which it will ask password. Here i need to automate the password reading.Can anyone help me on that please.
I've been thinking of using
read -p "password: " -s password

Thanks
Pavan

you ought to use a config file instead

Ok...so why don't you write your script and try it, using what you thought about, and see if it works? We're happy to help you, but you need to show us YOUR efforts first. Post what you have written/done/tried, and tell us where you're stuck. But we WILL NOT write your scripts for you.

Otherwise, there are THOUSANDS of bash scripting tutorials you can find online, including the one in my posting signature. And this has been pointed out to you before, in your other threads:
