Application credentials in Before/After scripts for IQService

It appears all the documentation is incorrect regarding the procedure for obtaining application credentials in PowerShell Before/After scripts for IQService.

Looking at the raw XML provided by the IQService in the application environment variable, the credentials are base64 encoded, and they also contain a newline in middle.

I have observed this on both the Active Directory and Entra ID connectors.

After joining the parts to form a complete string, we can base64 decode it into a binary array, but I assume it needs to be decrypted.

How do you do this in the IQService for ISC?

Hi Joseph,
I welcome you to use the Leave feedback at the bottom of the docs page(s) so that they can be improved!

Hi Derek,
I agree and I will certainly do that, but I am blocked at the moment and I am hoping to find out what other users are currently doing.

It looks like there are two places where before/after scripts for IQService are documented.

  1. Before/After Scripts for IQService (incorrect)
  2. How to read application configuration in IQService pre/post script - Compass (correct)

Hope that helps someoneā€¦
