How to set the Type attribute to masked
Set the Type attribute for an encrypted connection property to masked in the appropriate ConnectionParam element in <Actuate11_HOME>\BRDPro\eclipse\plugins\com.actuate.ais.embeddable_<version>\Config\aisconfigfiles\etc\intsrvrsources.xml and $AC_SERVER_HOME/etc/intsrvrsources.xml, or <Actuate11_HOME>\BRDPro\eclipse\plugins\com.actuate.ais.embeddable_<version>\Config\aisconfigfiles\etc\data_integration\datasources.xml and $AC_SERVER_HOME/etc/data_integration/datasources.xml. For example, in the following code, the Type attribute for the password property is set to masked:
<ConnectionParams>
  <ConnectionParam Name="username"
    Display="User name"
    Type="string">
  </ConnectionParam>
  <ConnectionParam Name="password"
    Display="Password"
    Type="masked">
  </ConnectionParam>
</ConnectionParams>
