[Feature request] Add option to display Microsoft App password when opening a bot #2458

Open d-kleine opened 5 months ago

Problem Description The problem is that when opening a bot in the Bot Framework Emulator, the Microsoft App password is masked. This can be frustrating because it makes it difficult to view, double-check or copy the password for reference or troubleshooting purposes.

Solution Request I would like to request an option to display the Microsoft App password in the Bot Framework Emulator. This would provide a convenient way for developers to view or copy the password when needed.

Alternative Considerations One alternative solution could be to provide a button or toggle switch in the Emulator interface that allows users to toggle between masked and unmasked display of the password. This would give users the flexibility to choose whether they want the password to be visible or not.

Another alternative could be to provide a keyboard shortcut that allows users to quickly toggle the password visibility on and off. This would make it even more convenient for users to switch between masked and unmasked display of the password without needing to navigate through the Emulator interface.
