openvpn3-autoload stills asks for auth credentials

[rajeshisnepali]

Here's my .autoload config

{
   "autostart": false,
    "name": "openvpn-in",
    "remote": {
        "proto-override": "udp",
        "timeout": "300",
        "compression": "asym"
    },
    "tunnel": {
        "ipv6": "default",
        "persist": true,
        "dns-setup-disabled": false
    },
    "user-auth": {
        "autologin": true,
        "username": "user",
        "password": "secret"
    } 
}

Here's my configs list

As soon as I try to connect with my session path, it prompts for an auth.

➜  openvpn3 session-start -p /net/openvpn/v3/configuration/2984ca8fxda0ax416ax997exc50ee5cad031
Session path: /net/openvpn/v3/sessions/2c82f155s145ds4f0dsa4f0s5bd678025e87
Auth User name: 

Am I missing anything?

Please read this post carefully: https://openvpn.net/openvpn-3-linux-and-auth-user-pass/

The .autoload file is only processed by openvpn3-autoload.

I still can't figure out what I am missing. I've followed both https://openvpn.net/openvpn-3-linux-and-auth-user-pass/ & https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3-linux/blob/master/docs/man/openvpn3-autoload.8.rst

The blog post does not use openvpn3 session-start to start the VPN session. It uses openvpn3-autoload.

The openvpn3 session-start command does not parse the .autoload file, where the user credentials is given. Only openvpn3-autoload parses that file.
