We were using v8.7 that I wrote a user-defined action that contains a password field in the GUI and when we used the action in v8.7, it would mask the password field as you entered text but when we upgraded to v9.2 the same user-defined action no longer masks the password field.

Did something change between these versions concerning the masking of password fields?

Thanks in advance,

Craig

That's working ok in our tests. With the attached .action file, the password field is masked.

Thanks for the quick response. I looked at your sample and I see there is a setting, Password = 1, how did you set that? I'm working with a .net user-defined action, is that why I don't see where the password bit is set to 1?

Regardless of the custom action type, the action properties are defined via Action Properties. Right-click in the header to show the Password field if it's not displayed.
