As is, the user cannot set the user name/password for the Enterprise cluster. This forces the user to download the telegraf config and edit it locally. If we want users to be able to point to the hosted config file, the following lines could use environment variables:

Ah, I see that it's possible to edit the credentials using the UI before downloading, but my guess is many users will want to option to use the config without entering sensitive credentials into the cloud UI.
